I'm getting ready to pull my hair out because I can't find the answers to what I feel are simple questions.

I have Yahoo Messenger 3.0 Beta. I am required to have Yahoo IM for a possible new job. I am very unfamiliar with Yahoo IM and have a couple of questions.

My prospective employer said they want me to put my time zone in front of my Yahoo name. Not wanting to appear stupid to a prospective employer, I thought I'd ask you guys.

1. By my Yahoo name, are they referring to my Screen name?
2. Is the name I signed up with my screen name or my Yahoo ID?
The name I have on the messenger itself is the first part of a Yahoo mail address I have. My poor memory won't let me remember if I picked that as a name or it is a default name from my Yahoo mail ID.
3. I read where I can make screen names for myself by going into my contacts and just picking my names and submitting without even filling out the boxes.
Is that true?

I may have more questions when you answer this, but that's enough for now as I've probably confused the heck out of you.

Looking forward to hearing from someone who knows confused
