    Just wondering if you have seen this.

    http://biz.yahoo.com/bw/011023/230201_1.html

    They change everything on your computer that has to do with the web and you hardly even notice it while it happens - at least if you are a non-advanced web user - most of those probably don't even know how to remove all the stuff again. I work in an Internet company and I think it is a brilliant move by them. They will sooner or later drive all signups into this. Once they have the user locked in like that, they are like AOL minus the access.

    However, I think that advanced web users will feel that it is too intrusive...I think most of the people here are very advanced with IT stuff...but do you think this move will pay off for Yahoo? I think so.

    I love Yahoo and use "MyYahoo" daily, but I ain't putting that thing in my machine.
    I'll access my own PM stuff through my own damn shortcuts.:)
