 malakia | I've spotted it in numerous recently installed xp systems with yahoo messenger not installed, where browsing with IE didn't work anymore, start up in safe mode - everything works again. Kill the service starting up with msconfig - all ok. try to clean the registry -next boot, no internet, all registry links back |
 Bruce | It locke my CPU up at 100% utilization - I killed the job - all was okay |
| DIDA | It's definitely not the yahoo messenger, because it loads trojans in your system32 folder.. |
| Alex | Can be hijacked by a trojan - my trouble atm, because it is, and no tool finds it as yet. infected my whole network and kills DNS Resolving.... |
| Coo | There is a adware version of it, which spreads itself throughout your local network. Look for a file calles "O" in your system32 dir. If you have this, ur infected |

| Jav | Some set a registry setting with "ypager -quiet" which caused Yahoo Messenger to open then immediately close again before I could login. |

| pluMmet | It appears that someone is using it to hack my system. My CPU usage hits 100% about every 5 seconds. When I remove them from my buddies list everything went back to normal but I have to block a "remote system trying to connect thru Ypager" when I start up...Man Wake up Yahoo! |
| | I have a Yahoo email account, but I've never installed their messenger, and yet I see it in my registry, so it's probably bad. I never use any type of instant messaging anyway so I don't need it |
| Rob | When I deleted the ypager in Task Manager, my Yahoo IM session terminated. When I logged back into Yahoo IM, it returned. So, tt appears to be used by Yahoo IM. |
| Bryan | It's harmess. Be real millions of people use it. It might be a pain, but it won't hurt anything. I have been using Messy since it's inception |
| UT_be careful | same problems as above...internet explorer stops working. messed up my prokect! KILL IT!!! |

| | if you end the ypager.exe process, it ends the yahoo instant messanger |
| geoff | It's Yahoo Messenger..normally. Make sure you don't have any viruses on it, and that it's actually Yahoo Messenger, and that you want to run Yahoo. Please Note, if you want to TURN OFF YAHOO MESSENGER, you can do that by going to preferences and telling it not to Automatically Log In When Windows Starts |

| Shadowtech | This is the executable for Yahoo! Instant Messenger. It is completely *HARMLESS* -- it is not "malware" of any kind. See also: Link |
| Stormbow | This is the Yahoo! Messenger process. If you are worried about it being harmful, simply don't install Yahoo! Toolbar or Messenger on your computer. |

| | This program as a key logger and can register any input, including passwords. I should it imagine its possible for hackers to use the keylogger ablitys of this software to compromise your compter |
| Terawatt | Zone Alarm detects my ypager (scanned for virus but not there) to be trying to monitor my mouse and keystrokes. Isn't it weird Yahoo? |
| serpico | bag pula in yahoo |
| | this program has performed an illegal operation and will be shut down |
| Torin | safe if oringinal, though they are modified versions that are dangerus, most of the time its safe |
| Andromeda | it is trying to log onto the internet all the time without my permission or approval. I didn't reolize what was doing it untill I got a firewall set up and found this program being blocked more than 37 times in the first 5 minutes!!! I am worried that I have put myself at risk now. I will be doing further research adn will probly find a way to delete it from my system. Even though I use yahoo IM. It is NOT a friendly program. |
| Infurnus | Yahoo IM. Use GAIM instead. |
| poop | cool |
| pam | try to connect to yahoo messenger but i can n ot get in |
| John | If you use yahoo messanger,its okay to leave it. |
| VJ | ypager.exe - the main process belonging to the Yahoo IM application, an Internet messaging program. A non-essential process. Disabling or enabling this is user preference |
| REDNIC DARIAN | My messenger doesn't work because it can't find YPAGER.exe How can i download it? |
| DP Daniel | Not able to open Yahoo Messager Inspite of downloading it 5 times. No short cut appears on the desktop. |
| Raffi Denson | apparently when i used ms.config to clear out a lot of junk and with the registry it continues to tell me i'm missing a component and no longer may use the messenger. that is fine also, you know if you just use a router with a double fire wall that keeps a lot of hackers out. I did not say all for some are so hip. the more junk the more problems |
| honebanda | it switches off my Yahoo messenger, its a nuisance, I don't need it |
| Kisara | Normally Yahoo messenger, but if multiples appear or you do not have Yahoo! Messenger installed, killit. See also: Link |
| | because of ypager.exe my yahoo is not opening what i do for it |
| Andy | Yahoo Messenger helper exe, can be stopped/disabled safely |
| Mbeeee | that is really yahoo messanger, try shutting it down your system will back to normal again .. i dont know ypager take up so much cpu usage |
| | I have been bothered by this constantly popping up from a worm warning from Symantec or Norton Anti-Virus Software. If you run this Software..Open and go to 'Options Tab' the on the left select 'Instant Messenger Then untick the checking by Yahoo. Appy and close. This I believe stops the annoying option 'permiting' ever moment' or Blocking. I believe Yahoo is using this to check if the user is active. Could be a setting thing. Don't think its being used malicously. |
| Maur | It is the service for Yahoo Messengerr located in C:\Program Files\Yahoo!\Messenger |
| ~~~brighteyes~~~ | every time i sign in or out of yahoo i get a ypager error... |
| ahmed | i want to fix voice in chat |
| emilio | ypager.exe is the main process belonging to the Yahoo Instant Messenger application, an Internet messaging program. This is a non-essential process. Disabling or enabling this is down to user preference |
| | u give it ram it will take it yahoo have had a lot of porbs. So i say the ypage.exe is 50/50 good and bad for you. See also: Link |
| Mobeena | this is very interesting and i would like to down load yahoo messenger . |
| Rajesh Bhansali | I found out that my ypager.exe was trying to find out my mouse movements and keyboard presses. When I typed something it appeared after a slight delay as if it was my mouse and keyboard moves were getting recorded somewhere. I installed ZONE ALARM. Restarted the machine and on starting ypager.exe immediately got the message that ypager was trying to get keyboard presses and mouse clicks, which it usually does. What we do not know is that whether it records even when we are not using the chat client. If so, and if it then sends everything somewhere on it's own, it'sDOOM for the ecommerce indus. |
| lizzard | there are a lot of bugs and yahoo dosent pay attetion .they made it why wont they fix it. |
| jonni | it is 4 yahoo instant messenger |
| | i want to download developer's download network plugins, so to get started (as what the instruction is), i downloaded SDK, unfortunately, ypager.exe does not exist, i have to find the path or else request will be denied. |
| Jeff | If you don't think you have Yahoo Messenger, but do have this program, it may come with ATT or SBC brand of DSL, since Yahoo co-operated with them. Not neccessary, but not likely to be harmful unless masquerading or in conflict; takes up some resources automatically |
| george | Zone alarm warning would pop up that this program is able to log keystrokes, etc. I deny it using Zone Alarm and then yahoo messenger continues to open. If it is such an integral part of yahoo messenger how come it was not denied altogether? |
| atef | yahoo messenger 4 chat |
| | It is the exe for yahoo messenger. But if you have a good firewall you do not need to let it act as a server or accept connections from the net. |
| Webmaster | Zona Alarm probably wants us to alert that Ypager.exe is able to get keyboard presses and mouse movement. Obviously that is essential for it to function. For those who are suspicious about it they can block it. See also: Link |
