prevent from booters
Booting is a problem, especially for teenage kids with nothing better to do than mess with people. You can get booted out of the Yahoo chat rooms, but you can also get booted out of Yahoo PMs.
How does this work? Well, Yahoo Messenger allows some HTML code. That's what makes the colors, faders and other special tricks work. Unfortunately, it's also what lets deviants use to boot you. They can put in the right HTML code and cause your Yahoo Messenger to crash.
Fortunately, there is an antidote. Open the filter1.txt file with Notepad. You'll find it in the Yahoo folder (usually C:\Program Files\Yahoo!\Messenger\).
Add these words to the filter1.txt file:
<snd,<alt, <url=, <font, <fade, <a, <html>, <body, <iframe, <frame, src=, <img, <url>, url(, onLoad=, http://, www, <embed
That should keep you safe from booters.
What's the downside? Well, you'll now see font size, fade codes, etc. in the messages (if someone is using them). But you won't get booted.
