I am currently using Yahoo! Messenger 6. My girlfriend uses Yahoo Messenger 5 (don’t know the exact version). We face a really long time gap between IMs, usually when she types something, it sometimes takes over 2 min before I can read it. And the last few times it’s been even worse, we both type hello, and that’s as far as we can go, after that we cannot read each other’s messages. We are both using Windows 98.
I would really appreciate it if someone could help us out. Should I reinstall Yahoo! 5 instead? I don’t need any fancy features, I just want to talk to her 🙁
(For some reason MSN always crashes on her PC, so that’s not exactly an option for us either).Hello Sofasofa,
If you dont care for any fancy features maybe you should try yahoos web messenger :
You will find it located here : http://messenger.yahoo.com/?i=1
1. Scroll to the end of the page
2. You will see a link that says Launch web messenger click on that. (If you have a pop up blocker when you click the link don’t forget to press control C while clicking the link) Also, I suggest if you use the web messenger, you might have your g/f do the same.
Just to see if it helps you both. If you are still experiencing lag time, it could be another problem.
Hope this helps 🙂
hey… if you want to downgrade your messenger. here is a page of yahoo messenger’s older versions…

jus download the older version and directly install the older version. dont uninstall the newer version if you want to hold on to your settings.
