alright.....it requires downloading a messenger but it dont take long, just go to www.yahoo.com and then on the right side of the screen very top right next to where it says yahoo in big red letters, there is a icon type thing that is labeld "messenger" click on that then it will take you to another page and then right there u can download messenger 5.5....if you go that far and you need more help feel free to hit me up
