Well, for the moment, it looks like the deal is off...however, if Yahoo's stock were to drop in price radically, it might come back....

Yahoo is down 22% in pre-opening trading. The collapse is here, the stockholders are NOT happy.

Yahoo spyware bundled with MS? What a nightmare! I just spent hours decrapping a customer's computer, the majority was Yahoo spamware that came with SBC/Yahoo DSL.

Can you tell I'm not a fan of Yahoo?

Try the PC Decrapifier next time, much easier to clean up a machine with that.
