Why did they introduce advertisements?

While this is beta, Live Messenger isn't... Your sig needs updating.

Ads were introduced in version 7.5, I believe.

Ah yes I do. I just got home, give me time.

Happy? :p

I found out how to completely remove the ads (registry key) so I'm happy... I dig the new version... I've seen people complain about stability issues, but I'm sure they'll keep making it better... Love the interop between Live Messenger now... Hope that turns out to work well.

Do you please care to share?

Suppose I should...

Using regedit, open up HKCU\Software\Yahoo\pager\YUrl. Create a new String entry named "Messenger Ad", and give it a value of "*" (no quotes).

Thanks!

if you remove the ads, does it leaves any blank spaces?

Nope! :)

LOL I was beat... No, the window isn't there... Gone... No ads no wasted space... This is apparently something that people did with 7.5... And still works with the shiney new 8.0 beta... I think they ought to keep it around, don't you? :yes:

I think this will be the best verson of yahoo messenger ever. I started useing yahoo messenger around verson 5.6. ( alough I barely remember using versons 5.0-5.5, though i dont quite remember 100 % ) I also remember waiting a long time for verson 6.0 to come, cause of its major updates it took forever. I think yahoo verson 7.5 was a big mistake as they could have added the PC to PC calling feature in Yahoo messenger 8.0.

good job yahoo this has to be the best verson of yahoo messenger you ever made.

Yea.. I think so too. Both v7.5 and 8.0 should of been more like 7.1 and 7.2 because of lack of major changes. Yahoo seems almost scared to released major changes UI or otherwise. Now granted the new plugins and the WLM/yahoo interop are pretty big things but they arent UI.. IMHO, major versions like a 8.0 should require major UI changes. Not just a few new icons here and there..

We need a msg plus kind of service for yahoo messenger. Also when will they learn, NO, dont set the program to run every friggin time i start the PC. ITs bloated, i dont always chat, and i dont like programs turning themselves on every time i turn the pc. Also they dont provide access to program preferences before anyone signs in.

ONe thing they did improve was that main window size now is remembered whereas in 7.5 the window would always expand after you try to sign in because sign in screen was too much bloated.

I agree this is such a huge yahoo update ( should be its a wooping 22.64 MB) with all the extras like plug-ins,PC-to-PC calling, blog with in the IM. we should at least have a major UI change. We had this same UI since Verson 6.0. that came out about 2-3 years ago.

One feature i'd like to see in Yahoo messenger 8.0 is the chance to check your E-mail with in the IM or the main window.or even a mail preview will be nice.,

i'm having a felling this will be the most popluar and best yahoo messenger verson ever.

    • Most boring game ever. Repetitive, empty, predictable, and full of cliches. Total waste of time and money, IMO.
    • Mafia: The Old Country expansion Man of Honor announced, brings back Salieri from original by Pulasthi Ariyasinghe During Summer Game Fest, 2K and Hanger 13 brought out a new Mafia: The Old Country trailer, revealing the game's first expansion. Named Man of Honor, this is slated to add two new chapters to the Enzo storyline that the game follows. There is an iconic character returning to the series with this expansion, with players set to run into Ennio Salieri, the future Don of the Salieri crime family. Fans of the original Mafia, or its Definitive Edition remake, may remember that name as one of the biggest characters in the storyline. This expansion is set prior to his rise to being the kingpin in the City of Lost Heaven. "Set in Sicily during the winter of 1905, Enzo Favara has proven himself a reliable soldier of the Torrisi crime family in the months since his initiation," says the studio about the new chapters. "Now, the Don entrusts him and Cesare with a delicate assignment of assisting Ennio Salieri, a man of honor recently released from prison and intent on reclaiming what is his." Working at Salieri's side, players will be heading into fresh environments as they return to the role of Enzo as a high-ranking soldato. The studio also promises brand-new weapons, fresh vehicles, and charms to collect in this expansion. Moreover, the expansion will add new content to the updated Free Ride mode. Alongside new collectibles and locations, this will add more challenges to beat alongside Salieri, which are described as runs that will "test the skills of even the most elite mafiosi." The Mafia: The Old Country Man of Honor story expansion will release on August 14, 2026, across PC, Xbox Series X|S, and PlayStation 5. It will cost $10 for owners of the base game to jump into.

    • Telltale returns with The Wolf Among Us, re-revealing the sequel and a new remaster by Pulasthi Ariyasinghe Telltale Games, the studio known for its episodic games from the 2000s, had a surprise appearance at the Summer Game Fest showcase today. The studio has gone through a collapse, an acquisition, and a revival but has largely gone silent in recent years. Today's sudden announcement was for the popular The Wolf Among Us series, with news about the sequel and a remaster dropping. Set after the events of the 2013-released title, the sequel will bring back Biby Wolf for a new adventure in Fabletown. This town of fairy tale characters is becoming unstable, with Snow White not being able to keep order as before. "When a brutal series of crimes threatens to fracture the fragile balance holding Fabletown together, Bigby Wolf, sheriff of Fabletown, finds himself drawn into a dangerous conspiracy that reaches deep into the city’s criminal underworld," says the studio. "As suspicion spreads across the city and powerful forces work against him, Bigby must uncover the truth and decide what kind of sheriff - and what kind of wolf - he is willing to become." At the same time, Telltale also announced The Wolf Among Us Remastered, bringing back the classic with a fresh coat of paint. This will include all five episodes from the original game plus over an hour of extra content that will offer behind-the-scenes videos, cast interviews, image galleries, and deleted scenes. The remaster will also have updated visuals and improved UI elements and accessibility features, alongside upgrades to the animations, audio, and frame rates. Telltale has been working on this project for almost a decade now, but if the new release schedule holds, fans will be able to jump into The Wolf Among Us 2 sometime in 2027. As for The Wolf Among Us Remastered, this is slated to release during this holiday season.
