Can you Get viruses by using yahoo messenger?

Of course yes!!! There is no 100% ideal antivirus software in the world.many new viruses are spread in the internet daily and anti viruses can not detect new, unknown viruses. therefore never trust your anti virus, in addition to that anti virus programs can not recognize spyware/adware softwares.although using yahoo messenger just for chatting is almost safe but it changes to dangerous when you receive executable files through file transfer feature of the messenger and run them on your computer.never download and run an executable file until you 100% trust the source or you will install a trojan/keylogger,.. by your own hands on your computer!!!!



I hope these information can help you.
