Yahoo Messenger controls
 

Now you can chat with all of your Yahoo pals and never leave Paltalk.  You don't even need Yahoo Messenger to be installed on your machine! (provided you already have a Yahoo account set up)

This version allows you to add Yahoo contacts, and enter into private chats with them, just as if they were logged into Paltalk. Yahoo contacts will have the 'smiley face' icon displayed to the left of their names on your 'pal list'.

Paltalk / Yahoo interoperability is kept as safe and secure as possible. Paltalk only allows simple text messaging and never allows direct connections between users. This helps to insure safe messaging between both Paltalk users, and Yahoo users.
