Yahoo Messenger bug. :(

I have had a problem with yahoo messenger for a while already.

When the messages show up in the message frame, I just can't read what people say (including me). The font is too small. I can read the user's nickname, but niot the message, I tried overriding the person's font, but it didn't work. Does anyone have the same problem? :'(

I have ymessenger 0.99.19 instaled with a rpm for mandrake. My mandrake is 9.1 GPL.

The problem with Yahoo Messenger and them developing for certain distros is they seem to only develop for platforms specified/tested on. As it says its for Mandrake, you are using the latest version and they tested last on Mandrake 8.1 which is probably causing problems as they haven't updated for 9.1 and so on..

Can I suggest GAIM, which can use not only AIM but Yahoo, MSN and many others.. and it works on all the latest platforms of Linux and the many distro's.
