I have down loaded and used Yahoo messanger for both chat and to cam. (Cam to receive one way feed only) How do I remove the program files, any chat files and any cam files from my computer. I do have a number of other programs on teh computer that may be linked to yahoo files like, real player and quick time. The program was downloaded in windows.

Thanks for your help

1.Go to Add/Remove in your Control Panel.
2.If not listed, Go to Programs and Click the Uninstall in the Yahoo listing.
3. If no uninstall listed there, Go to Windows Explorer and find the Yahoo folder and look for an Uninstall file there.
4. If there is none there, use a program like Clean Sweep, right click on the .EXE file and click uninstall.
When you uninstall and it asks what to do with shared files click No to All, leave them.
