Plug-ins
Are Plug-ins free, useful programs that build on the real-time sharing aspect of Messenger? Are some plug-ins mostly for me (like stock- or auction-watching) and other plug-ins for doing stuff together (like co-browsing or doodling)? Where can I find more plug-ins? Why are some plug-ins showing up in a pop-up menu? Can I write a plug-in myself? Why doesn’t my friend see plug-ins?
Yahoo! 360°
What is Yahoo! 360°? Does the yellow burst next to a name in my Messenger list mean they added something to their Yahoo! 360° page? What does “Also add this contact to Yahoo! 360°” mean when I try to add a new contact? How do I get started on Yahoo! 360°?

What are the system requirements for Avatars? How do I see peoples’ Avatars in my Messenger List? How do I change the size of a display image? How do I customise my Avatar and set its mood?

Games
What do I need to play games within Yahoo! Messenger? How do I change the alerts and sounds? How do I invite a friend (but soon arch-enemy) to play a game? Will these games affect my ratings? Can I, uh, stop my status from displaying that I'm playing games? How do I hide my high scores? How do I enable Java for Internet Explorer? How do I clear my cache? Why am I receiving a script error when I try to load a game?
