....you can choose which features you want loaded, ... Sure, it loads SBC/Yahoo's own browser...
Wee bit of a contradiction eh?

Well I glad you're happy with it.

I don't want the SBC Yahoo! Browser or any SBC Yahoo!/Yahoo! software on my system. Nor do I use Internet Explorer.

Been there, done that before knowing better. Installing ISP's software to "enhance" your internet and browsing experience. Except when you need/want to switch to a different ISP and try to uninstall/remove the software and changes made to your system.

As crappy as the SBC-Yahoo software bundle is, I've got to say that at least it uninstalls cleanly. Still, I don't recommend that anyone install it in the first place.
