I am not sure what to do. The catergory: System startup user entry/Change: Value changed/Entry:Yahoo pager/It wants to know if I allow change or deny change? This popped up when we clicked on Yahoo Messenger. What do I do?

Hello,

Please read this information about TeaTimer:
http://www.safer-networking.org/en/faq/33.html
and http://www.safer-networking.org/en/faq/34.html
If you surf the web and without any user interaction the teatimer pops up and warns about a registry change it is better to "deny", but if you install something by yourself it is OK to "allow" the change.
The tutorial (point 8) on our homepage should also help explaining:

Greetings,
Mike
