I would like to get rid of Yahoo Messenger, but it is not displayed in the Add/Remove programs at all. I even tryed installing Yahoo again, and no luck...Yahoo is still not in the add/remove programs. This has really made me angry. I don't understand why it would do that in the first place. (Any answers on that?) Are there any other ways to uninstall this sucker? Thanks

Thank you so much, that did indeed help!!! Allthough some of the Yahoo components are still there like YPager. Update, well messenger is gone, but all the folder that came with it are still there. Everything.. When I try delte Yahoo! from Program Files it says Access Denied

if it says it's because the program is currently in use, try resetting and then deleting the folder?

Heres the error I get when I try to delete:

Cannot delete pubmod: Access is denied. Make sure the disk is not full or write-protected and that the file is not currently in use. How do I reset the folder?

give the pc a reboot and make sure you are logged on with a local admin account.
