I have Webroot anti virus and Windows Mail (Vista) I thought I had installed
everything properly and when I open my mail it says there are no new
messages. However if I check my mail through Yahoo I have mail. So if I have
mail where does it go if I go through Windows mail? I hope this makes cense
to some. Please help.
 
You've set up a Yahoo mail account in Windows Mail? Is that a paid
or free account? US-based free Yahoo accounts have webmail access
only, no POP access. Windows Mail handles POP mail but not Yahoo webmail.
Yahoo's solution is to pay them for premium "Mail Plus" service:

and use the special settings for that service:

If you need more help with this, just ask.
