thats in your control panel, not on yahoo. Start/setting/control panel/mouse    on the pointers tab select your pointer and apply it and viola..done

Try reloading yahoo chat and see if that works. Otherwise it might be blocking java.

Hmm.. Usually when you download a Widget, it has a zip file with a .widget file in it.. Did you try rebooting after installing Yahoo! Widgets? Cause sometimes the operating system will have some trouble opening the new file. If that doesnt work, sorry, maybe consult the FAQ..?

Perhaps it's a pop up blocker that is blocking one of the windows. If you have Yahoo toolbar look for a square yellow box, then right click on it and see if "enable pop up blocker" is checked, if it is unchecked by clicking on it. Try again to download your program. Hope this helps.

Drag them into your widgets folder, and run them. They will be there. Then, set yahoo widgets engine to run when your computer starts up, and widgets that were running when you shut down will open again.

go to http://www.widgets.yahoo.com  download the widget engine and then browse the gallery for different widgets.  you can find amazing things in there and i have seen some that you can download to your computer that are personal blogs.  its all free and i promise youll love it.\n\nor just use a site like xanga.com or livejournal.com and leave it on private use in the settings so no one else can see it

I'm having the exact same problem.  I've tried multiple browsers, I've made sure Java was updated, nothing works.  It's not your system, it's Yahoo's fault, but their customer service is worthless, there's nothing we can do. For anyone who hasn't bought it yet, please don't buy it.

Press F5. \n\nYou're probably using an older browser that doesn't update sites like yahoo automatically.

Yahoo widgets are very cool. The engine is software that must be run in order to use any of about 3000 widgets that are available for free. Widgets are little mini programs that run on your computer desktop like an analog clock with alarms, notepad, funny little characters, news feeds, etc... You need windows xp, but they are just great, try them out, its yahoo, completely safe program., you can always uninstall it.

I've never used yahoo widgets but you can get some information here.   Try going to control panel "add/remove" programs and uninstall "yahoo widgets".  Then go to this site and download them again with instructions.\n\nhttp://widgets.yahoo.com/\n\nI went to the site and if you click on each widget it gives you instructions on how to use it.

you will need some javascript, \n\n<A HREF="javascript:void(0)"onclick="window.open('http://www.yahoo.com/','linkname','height=640, width=480,scrollbars=no')">yahoo on a new window</a>

I think Yahoo must have changed the coding on their site.\n\nThe same happend to me -- none of the buttons on opened emails work. You get a yellow triangle at bottom of browser and message about error on page.\n\nHowver, it doesn't affect everyone. It works Okon another PC so I think it may be related to thev ersion of IE we are using/
