Yahoo Messenger - Games

by bkblank Dec 5, 2006 7:19AM PST

Having problem with the games not opening up when trying to access them from within yhaoo messenger. Just get a red x in upper left hand corner.

Can access the games on the web, but not through messenger..

was working fine.. then all of a sudden it stopped... like maybe after an update?? or windows or other software... not sure..
have tried removing and resinstalling all of yahoo...but did not help.

Any ideas?

Hint. Research about "security" or "exploits."

Think about it. Doesn't this sound like a possible security issue if you launch such from the messenger?

I'll write "good riddance" to a bad idea.
