I see a benefit of the c-mode but i have to agree about gawd mode been too drastic.

However it would be useful if a person was quick enough to enable it when a person floods the room fast with this new field 252 room flood thats disconnecting most people.

I'm on a fixed wireless connection thats not the best and will admit the room flood disconnects me on occasion, but i do feel taking away everything but typing in the room as to be nothing short of been out of the room booted anyways.

I'm a frequent chatter in "Yahoo! Chat Help:1" and all i have been seeing the past 3 days is "Y!mLite" users coming into the room booting everybody that either uses YahELite , YaZak or Yahoo! Messenger then posting link to go get Y!mLite after these people reconnect, sorry but i would rather give someone the choice of what client or addon to use, not to be bullied by other users, specially not in a room thats there for users to help others with Yahoo! Messenger/chat related issues.

Now well it's good to have such programs as YTK , YahELite, YaZak, Y!mLite and YAM out there, i feel some people take the whole thing too far at times. To be honest yahoo! should have sorted out the whole booting thing ages ago and i commend anybody who goes out of their way to help people defend themselves against it but booting people to use your software is just wrong and against all the reasons they made it in the first place.

When you have the YTK Lite up i will give it a whirl and give you feedback on it like i do most software releases on all sorts of platforms and genres.

Good luck!

The reason I thought one needed to use a second chat client for the second account was per your instructions. I know of no way to log into Messenger with two accounts. Hence the only way to have two ID's in the room to inable viewing text is to log in with another client.

Toggling back and forth between C mode and gawd mode also seems awkward since there is no way to know when you are being booted so you can put up defences and take them down at will. There is also the issue of voice laggers which would then require the room to be muted AND invisible.

Sounds to me you have a firewall blocking access to the activation server. You should post about this on the YTK Pro Forums and our support staff can better help you.

That's a lot of nothing!! Now look, let's be mature here. If you can't get it activated it's definitely an issue preventing it from happening on your end. So if you haven't activated this yet send me a support e-mail or post on our forum, I've received neither from you but did receive a regnow support e-mail since you contacted them instead of support@ytkpro.com. Contact support not regnow, they can't help you.

Was wondering What the webcam options are. like:

Does it have only let friends and or safe user requests, unknown user requests?
Always allow to view list?
always ignore request list?
only let people in chat rooms i am in view? once they or I leave the room they get booted off.

I used to know so many people that got ytunnel becouse of these settings and others.

At this time there isn't any Webcam enhancements in YTK Pro or in YTK Lite other than the Webcam Checker that the Pro has. We believe that Messenger's controls for this are sufficient enough but more could be done.

You can bet that here really soon YTK Pro and Lite will have many webcam options. The last two things to be added will be full cam support and voice lag protection. The last one is already done but still being tested and the first is done as far as the features we're going to offer. In total I'd say we'll have 7 to 8 cam options and more if Yahoo! decides to extend the protocol to allow for more to be done.

This is one of Yahoo!'s old features that i miss the most...... (I liked when it appeared in the IM window) So was wondering if it was ever added since i don't use Yahoo! Chat and this would be the one reason to make me purchase YTK, since i really miss that feature!

I told my psychiatrist that everyone hates me. He said I was being ridiculous - everyone hasn't met me yet.
