I have the new version of yahoo on my pc - Windows 7 operating system and have no problems with it.

Some suggestions - please keep in mind that I am not an expert - some would say I have enough knowledge to make me dangerous!

Use a "Restore Point" on your computer to reset the software that runs the computer to an earlier version. I don't think that will remove the new version of yahoo, but it will change the system software back to what it was before the yahoo update.

If your anti-virus software isn't up to date, you may also have picked up a virus - not necessarily from downloading yahoo.

If you have more than one anti-virus software running on your pc, that can slow the PC so much that it seems like it is stopped. They fight each other for memory to do their anti-viral thing.

good luck!

I haven't "updated" yet and will hold off until I have to change. Thanks for warning me.

I hate the new Yahoo Mail, so much of it does not work.

I have a Yahoo email box and changed my screen to the proper pixels or whatever like they said I should. But that shrank everything else on the screen, so I changed it back. Now, I'm getting warnings that I better change soon. Well, I have another email box that I seldom use that's been updated, but I can't figure out how to open mail in there now! I wish they would stop "improving" things.
