Word to the wise...
I got tired of the update nag and let Messenger 7 update on 98SE. Big
mistake. It crashes immediately. which I think was the problem when 7 ran
on ME. Also, without a hint of a warning, Yahoo changed my home page, and
installed Yahoo Toolbar and Yahoo Explorer Bar. I never wanted those. I
uninstalled the whole thing and purged every instance of Yahoo from my
computer.
