well things will go from 98 to Vista. I haven't used 98 in well... a long
time.. lol.. but this is where you can find your archives..

C:\Program Files\Yahoo!\Messenger\Profiles\(your yahoo ID)\Archive

You may be able to make a copy of the entire "Profile" folder and then
transfer it to your new computer... IF the new version of YM is compatible
with the older version you had on 98.. or rather the file management system
on Vista. If your YM program and archives are in the same place on Vista,
then it may work.

This might be something that the file transfer wizard is capable of doing to
transfer all of your old files from your old computer to your new computer.
Check with where you purchased your computer to see if they will provide
this service... or you can just do it manually using a USB thumb drive or
CD's.

Subject: [Y!M] Transferring IM Messages

Hello and thank you for allowing me to join this group. I am not a PC
wizard and wondered if someone can help me.

I recently purchased a new PC (went from Windows 98 to VISTA)....I
downloaded the Yahoo IM and my contact list came over but not the message
history.

My question is, how can I get the message history onto my new PC??

Thank you in advance....
