Guest Mike Arter Posted December 18, 2007 Posted December 18, 2007 Yahoo starts automatically when I boot up. The Autoexec.bat file is empty. How do I switch off this preogram? Thanks
Guest Bob I Posted December 18, 2007 Posted December 18, 2007 Re: How to turn off Yahoo Messenger Windows 2000 doesn't use Autoexec.bat. Try r-clicking on the Yahoo icon in the Notification area and pick options or disable or settings for the program. Mike Arter wrote: > Yahoo starts automatically when I boot up.

Guest Vince Posted December 18, 2007 Posted December 18, 2007 Re: How to turn off Yahoo Messenger You will have to login to the Yahoo Messenger to have access to all of the options. But once there under the general tab you can tell it not to start with Windows.

Guest sgopus Posted December 31, 2007 Posted December 31, 2007 Re: How to turn off Yahoo Messenger Why not use msconfig and unselect messenger from starting at load up. you can find msconfig on the net, you can even use msconfig from xp and copy/paste it into system 32 and it will work just fine.
