o_0 I'll just delete the toolbar after I install it.

And is it just me or can others not see the Toolbar button on the sidebar?

EDIT: XD It only shows up in IE. Good thing I only use Firefox. ;)

It seems the toolbar is available for download BUT the Neopets icon is missing and I haven't gotten any limited time offer of getting the Bori and PB. :x

EDIT: Looks like I missed the fine print:

NOTE: The prizes listed above will be awarded as soon as we receive verification that you have fully installed the Yahoo! Toolbar. This may take up to 24 hours so please be patient! We hope to have the Bori adoption bit done within the next week.


But still, where's the Neopets Icon?

I just finished installing it. I think you have to have less than 4 pets on your account, but don't quote me on that.

The thing I'm curious about is, will they let us adopt a Bori above and beyond the 4 pets we (may) already have? I mean, I really do highly doubt it, but Donna has said that having more than 4 pets is something they won't necessarily rule out.

Some people believe that the "premium" neopets accounts will be allowed to have more than four pets because they are paying. I don't know if thats true.

Thats a good question though. Will we be able to adopt Boris if we have four pets already.... hmmm

Hmph, I downloaded the toolbar thing, and I have Win XP, but it says it's not a proper .exe file or something like that.
:x

I finally was able to get it by downloading the toolbar off the yahoo site first and then clicking the link on neopets.. I think o_O It was confusing. Hopefully i'll get the prize so I can go and delete it, I already have google toolbar anyway..

it kinda makes me angry that neopets is doing this.....it just doesn't seem...right? i dunno.

i already have neopets premium so i have the a toolbar, and i have four pets already so that rules me out.

did you install "my websearch" or did it install itself? in my experience a lot of malware comes with that particular toolbar, it messed up my friend's comp.

Mine doesn't have the neo button?

Fri Oct 01, 2004 1:35 am

well, i downloaded the toolbar just for the prize. its not like i use yahoo much anyways. i guess it's a good use to search faster and so i can check my old emails from yahoo... and just a click away to neopets.

Yup, that's what I'm doing. (if I can install it) Install, wait for PB, uninstall. If necessary, run Spybot S&D to kill it. :D Unfortunately, I don't like the wording "You will also get access to an exclusive Frozen Paint Brush that will only work on this new Neopet!"

But hey, what is there to lose? Well... a toolbar, but who cares. 8)

Edit: Since no one ever reads the TOS on stuff, I just randomly decided to. Have you ever seen this:

"(iv) you may not use the Yahoo! Software to operate nuclear facilities, life support, or other mission critical application where human life or property may be at stake. You understand that the Yahoo! Software is not designed for such purposes and that its failure in such cases could lead to death, personal injury, or severe property or environmental damage for which yahoo! is not responsible." HAHAHA that's great. :roflol: Using a toolbar to operate a nuclear facility... :roflol:

Edit 2: well... it's downloaded & installed. It's annoying as dung, but hey, it's there, and hopefully I'll get my Frozen PB, and hopefully it'll be a regular item.

Ooops!!

We are sorry but the Neopets / Yahoo! Toolbar is currently not available for your country or language. Please check back later for further updates as we will be adding a way for everyone to get the Bori offer soon!


Very funny... I kinda like the Bori, there goes my hope of getting one ¬¬
