Few days back i published a post How to open multiple Google Talk.
Today i am going to show a Registry hack to open multiple Yahoo messengers on a single PC...
Multiple Yahoo Messengers on single PC
Here are the steps :
- Click on Start -> Run...
- Type Regedit in Run text box and hit enter to launch Registry Editor
- Now, navigate to HKEY_CURRENT_USER > Software > Yahoo > Pager > Test.
- On the right pane, right click and click on New > DWORD value
- Rename the new registry key as Plural.
- Right Click on "Plural" and Select "Modify". Change the cell value in “Value Data” to 1 (For Vista users) Thanks to kristina
Close the Registry. You are done. Now try opening multiple instances of yahoo messenger and login with multiple accounts...
Leave any suggestions or comments.....
Thanks to MyTechQuest

You could probably do the same thing by opening multiple instances of Meebo as well. http://www.meebo.com
Couldn’t you?
Wow this is a very useful tip. I have always struggled with this one.
@Michael you are right we can do it. But if two ppl want to use yahoo messenger on the same PC then this is what we do.
@Lvs, Thanks…

Any idea how you can get your webcam working in each of these windows
@Alan, Never thought of this before. Let me try this and get back to you.
Nihar..Ive tried everything from splitcam to manycam but they dont work..I can only get one window at a time to recognise my cam. Ten out of ten if you can come up with something that works…thanks
@Alan, I will try it and leave a comment as soon as i get to know the solution.
I don’t know if this is even possible to be honest. I know that you cannot open your webcam on separate messenger clients on the same time because “your webcam is in use by another program”. So it may just read the same way with two yahoo clients.
@krisitina, I think it is not possible. But let me try and if i succeed will come up with a post.
Hey Nihar.. I just tried this one out, but i dont seem to be able to open up two windows of yahoo msgr. what could i possibly be doing wrong? could u help here too, pls?
thanx!
@Deepa, Just check the comments again. Check the latest comment. I think that is your answer.
But yeah, i have to add that i was successful with the same stint on Gtalk though! thanx for that!
@Deepa, I am glad that it worked for Gtalk.
There is one more step that I had to do on vista.
Right click the new “Plural”
Select “Modify”
Change the cell value in “Value Data” to 1
Then it worked perfectly.
Thanks for the help!
@Kristina, Thank you very much for correcting me. I will add this step for Vista users.
No Problem! Thanks for giving me the credit my dear
I am also using the Multi Yahoo Messenger!
