What is this purple and grey Y! box that is appearing at the top of my IE window?

Starting with Rogers Yahoo! Toolbar 6.2 for Internet Explorer, the toolbar periodically alerts you about helpful toolbar features.

Yahoo! Toolbar version 6.x

Yahoo! Toolbar version 7.x

Some examples of these tips are:

• A tip on how to use the search and navigation features of Rogers Yahoo! Toolbar when you first start it after installation.
• A tip regarding the News button along with a quick way to add it to your Rogers Yahoo! Toolbar if you visit Rogers Yahoo! News.
• A reminder when you sign out of Rogers Yahoo! Mail that signing out prevents you from receiving new mail notifications through the Rogers Yahoo! Toolbar.

Depending on your browser settings, you should typically see each tip only once. We hope you find these reminders useful. However, if you want to stop these feature tips from appearing you can do the following:

For Version 6.x:

1. Click "Toolbar Options" under the Pencil menu.
2. Under the "More Options section of the Toolbar Options dialogue, uncheck "Enable Feature Tips".
3. Click "OK".
4. You'll no longer receive feature tips from the Rogers Yahoo! Toolbar.

For Version 7.x:

1. Click "Settings" then select "Toolbar Options."
2. Under the "More Options section of the Toolbar Options dialogue, uncheck "Enable Feature Tips".
3. Click "OK".
4. You'll no longer receive feature tips from the Rogers Yahoo! Toolbar.

To turn the feature tips back on, return to the Toolbar Options dialogue and re-check the "Enable Feature Tips" checkbox.
