Multiple Yahoo Messenger

Do you have 2 or more yahoo accounts that you need to use in yahoo messenger at the same time? No Worries! This can be done in 1 machine (using Windows OS).

A simple trick to run yahoo messenger multiple times so you can use multiple accounts at the same time. All you have to do is modify something in windows registry.
Here are the steps:
1. Open Notepad.
2. Copy the following in the opened Notepad:
REGEDIT4
[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Yahoo\pager\Test]
"plural"=dword:00000001

Note: just replace the dword:00000001 to dword:00000000 if you want to disable multiple instance of yahoo messenger.
3. Save the file as MultipleYM.reg.
4. Locate and right click on the file MultipleYM.reg and click on Merge
5. Click Yes on the Prompt.

This trick does not need to restart Windows, you can now run the yahoo messenger multiple times and login all your accounts.

Enjoy! ^_^
