    @marie mooney – You can of course uninstall the YM from her computer, but she can just download and install it again if she has Internet access.
    Using the Group Policy Editor in Windows, you can prevent the application from installing and/or running, but if you do that locally on her PC, she can circumvent that as well if she knows how to. The best option is to use the Group Policy Editor on a domain level, if her PC is part of a domain server in Windows.

    hi i scan my computer there is no virus and spyware still it happend reboot i have two setup of yahoo messanger even if i change path of installation it still reboot

    @siddhesh – First I’d suggest you run a virus and spyware scan, because installing Yahoo messenger should not reboot your PC.
    Also try downloading the installation file before you install it, do not install/run it directly from the download location.

    @Maricel – You can delete your Yahoo account from Yahoo itself, simply log in and delete it. Pls. look at http://help.yahoo.com/l/us/yahoo/edit/changing_users/edit-23.html

    Do keep in mind that this will completely remove your Yahoo account!

    @John F & E Kashif – If the uninstall.log is missing, the standard uninstaller will not work. You can try a third party uninstaller, like Perfect Uninstaller.

    One other thing you can try is to install Yahoo messenger again. If that works, you might be able to uninstall it as described in the article.
