I uninstalled Yahoo. But Yahoo Mail is still listed in my programs under
Add/Remove and I can't get rid of it. How do I do this?

Hi Gary,

Are you sure you've uninstalled it? Is the program folder gone? If so:

Start, Run, type regedit and click OK. Navigate to
HKLM\software\microsoft\windows\currentversion\uninstall
From there, click File, Export, and name the file uninstall.reg

Now scroll down through the folder keys on the left pane until you find
the one containing Yahoo Mail. Delete the key. Close regedit.

It should now be gone from Add/Remove Programs.

I presume you are talking about Yahoo! Internet Mail. The solution I will
give you just might work, as it has done so for other users. Please follow
these steps:

1. Log into Yahoo mail.
2. Find the "Compose" option, and click it.
3. Click on the "Enable autocomplete" image or link. Follow the onscreen
steps to install autocomplete. However, do NOT select the option that will
choose to set it as your default email client.
4. Once installed, return to Add/Remove programs and uninstall Yahoo!
Internet Mail and then uninstall Autocomplete.

This should uninstall Yahoo Internet Mail completely from your system.
Please let me know if this works for you.

That's not really a big issue.
