I don't think 32-bit versions of Yahoo's Messenger still work. I'm looking for a messenger that can still use Yahoo's service that is for Windows 98. I have been using Trillian, but I think they switched to 64-bit only, so it no longer updates. I am going to try an ansi version of Miranda, but would also like another as a backup. Thanks.

Hi there, welcome to oldapps!
Here at oldapps you can find different yahoo versions. Here is the link

Thanks. My question was actually about the System Requirements, which list different for 32 and 64 bit versions. I don't know how to tell which was correct for the file, or if both versions were included in the download? I know how to tell after it's downloaded, but didn't want to download that much, even though I could use a search algorithm.

I figured I would just look it up at the software's websites, but not to say this one was anything less than very helpful. This is my favorite download site.

I found that Pidgin still works with 98, and it has spell-check, so I chose that. Miranda worked fairly well, also.

I'm sorry I misunderstood.

System requirements for both 32 and 64 bit yahoo messenger.

• Pentium-class processor (1.0GHz or higher)
• Internet Explorer (version 6.0 or later)
• At least 256MB RAM
• A microphone, sound card, and speakers

A broadband Internet connection is recommended, though not necessary.
