chat transcripts

I'd like to take a look at a transcript of a conversation I recently had on yahoo chat, using the IM function. Are these stored on my computer somewhere, or do they just disappear forever after you are done?

Newbie, I am unsure

about Yahoo but MSN Messenger makes a Message History by default unless reset under options and the block is unticked... so there is a good chance Yahoo does this also. Maybe someone who uses Yahoo can answer your question.

Yahoo Chat or Yahoo Messenger?

by Edward ODaniel Aug 25, 2005 7:26AM PDT

Here is the help page for Yahoo Chat where you should find an answer to your question (which you could also ask in one of the chat rooms).
http://help.yahoo.com/help/chat

If you meant the Yahoo Messenger then this link will help as it offers assistance for specific versions (which info you did not provide):
