How to Recover Yahoo Messenger Chats
Yahoo Messenger is an extremely smart application that provides instant messaging services. It also allows the users to have one on one conversations with friends and family members. Using Yahoo Messenger’s service, you can create a list of your friends and family so you can start a conversation with them when they are online. When you click the name in the fiends list, a new window opens up. The conversation takes place in that window. However, when you close it, the entire conversation closes with it. When you open the same conversation window again, a new and blank conversation window is created.
