Graham,

OK, many thanks - it certainly sounds like she will be quite safe to get
these uninstalled.

Jamie

Hi Jamie.  This is in fact a messenger program used for chat like Windows 
Messenger or MS Messenger so if she doesn't use this then certainly remove 
it.  In fact you do not need to install any BT software in order to get 
products like BT home Hub working well.

I have generally taken this advice so I must say I am not sure which other 
BT programs get installed.  Maybe someone else can give more precise advice 
here.

Regards

Graham

Subject: [jaws-uk] BT Yahoo Applications


Hi all,

Not strictly a Jaws question but I believe that there was some discussion of
this sort in the past and hope that someone knows the answer....

I'm trying to assist a lady to clean out her system of things that she isn't
likely to use.  In doing so, I came across an application called "Yahoo
Messenger" which is obviously loading on start up as it is always present
after booting up.

I am guessing that this is an application that is part of the BT Yahoo
Applications which is listed in the "Add/remove programmes" section of the
Control Panel.

My problem is that I don't know what else is in the BT Yahoo Applications.

Does anyone out there know if it is OK to uninstall this application without
damaging the BT internet connection?  Alternatively, do you know any easy
way to stop Yahoo Messenger from loading at all - it is not listed in the
"Start Up" group on the "Programmes" menu.

Thanks in advance,

Jamie
