Not even sure if this is to do with XP but just in case anyone knows .....
If I use Yahoo Instant Messenger and right click on any of the contacts or
right click on the icon in the system tray the program shuts down. It
doesn't happen with MSN or any other messenger. Any ideas please? I use
Norton 2005 antivirus and Zone Labs Pro firewall and have even tried turning
them off but it makes no difference. Thanks for any help
