Datdeus Yahoo spyware loader Finland it wont let me delete it. i knew it was spyware.... Twizted It's not spyware. This file is used for Yahoo!

To do this, go to a command prompt and enter regsvr32 ymmapi.dll /u , and click enter. Robert Robert Rand, Deerfiled Beach Florida This dll allowed non client based yahoo mail (online) to be your default mail application. When installed, it show up as a listbox choice when you select tools, Internet Options, Programs, E-mail, in internet Explorer. This code is now embeded in the Yahoo Messenger, which you have to install if you want your Yahoo email to work from within web pages. If you leave it on your computer, it will mess up Yahoo mail and Yahoo messenger. You can delete it from the folder its in by first deselecting it in IE, then reboot your machine. It is now inactive and you can delete it. Robert. If you know more about ymmapi.dll, share your knowledge and help other users.
