Read more on and download Yahoo! Messenger 9.0 at: Yahoo! FanClub or Topic link

 

oh well, you can also download it from: http://beta.messenger.yahoo.com

i don't really like it, it seems they've copied Gtalk.. they added few new features but it's not really that great. i think i'll stick to 8.1

 

@Nosfer: Yea ... but changes are the part of development.

well the link I am providing is a direct link from Yahoo! FanClub. 12.7 MB file. It can be used for offline installation.

 

I think it looks great. I'm going to upgrade.

 

Umm...I think I'll stick with 8.1 much longer.

 

I've got it now. And it looks prettier, but other than that, it doesn't seem much different...

 

IMO... yahoo is the most lousy instant messenger service around. .... i am more than comfortable with gtalk

 

I downloaded it yesterday.
The feature I liked was that it displays Phone-out balance and look is good but its sluggish

 

Great. !

ONe day or the other you'll have to shift to Yahoo! Messenger 9.0

Another satisfied user. .. did you download from that yahoo! messenger 9.0 from Yahoo! FanClub. ??

No it isnt. its just that Gtalk is simple and more like a graveyardic atmosphere. Yahoo! Messenger is like a party time.

Its a Beta release.

 

I know but until then let me use 8.1

 

No, sorry. I used this link:

Is there a difference depending on where you DL from?

It's still missing the one feature that I miss from Trillian. It doesn't show me when each user was last online. With Trillian I could click on the name of a contact and it would show me when they were last logged in, whether I was logged in at that time or not.

 

Actually the file I am providing is a 12.7 MB file for offline installation. that means you can burn in on CDs or install it without internet connection.

 

Wow.. good fine.. Upgrading Now...... Thanks

EDIT:

Anyone tried to install this from http://beta.messenger.yahoo.com/ I am getting the following error



anyone have the same problem?

 

Other than MSN I didn't download any non multi platform IM in years. Trillian and/or pidgin (who the hell came up with that name?) do a great job. Though I heard the new version of ICQ is great too...

 

Download Links(Full Installers)

http://us.dl1.yimg.com/download.yahoo.com/dl/msgr9/us/ymsgr9us.exe

Trick to download full installers, just add a "y" in original 340KB installer's filename in link.

For example above Links for 340KB sized installer was(provided by Y! site):

http://us.dl1.yimg.com/download.yahoo.com/dl/msgr9/us/msgr9us.exe

I just added y in front of filename to make it complete download. I don't know why Yahoo! hides the full installers from public downloads.

This trick will work for all versions of Yahoo! Messengers and of all languages and all country versions of Y! Messengers.
