Yahoo Messenger
Hi
Can someone tell me how to permanently remove Yahoo Messenger - I have already removed it from my Control Panel and the icon, but it is still showing as a little smiling face on the taskbar and pops up each time I switch on my Internet. I am with BT and use BT Broadband Yahoo?
I thought when I removed it from my Control Panel it would not return, but like a bad name, it has.
Thanks, in advance, to all who answer.
