Marie: How do you find old messages from yahoo messenger? Do you need to be on the same computer?
I have looked at yahoo messenger on a different computer but cannot find my old messages.

Sorry but message archives are saved on your computer so you would have to be on that computer to access them. And by default yahoo messenger deletes all messages in the archives everytime you sign out of Yahoo Messenger unless you manually change this setting to always save your messages.
