ORIGINAL: DaddySatyr I am very proud to say that I haven't used Yahell in well over a decade. It is porous and opens holes in your firewall/virus support through which a tank could be driven. Just use Skype. Job done. Michael Try using a port monitor when you open Skype. Under YIM, if I open a window to chat, it opens just ONE port - the chat window to the other person. When I open Skype, it opens dozens of ports that I'm not using which leaves me open to back-door intrusions that I can't stop because Skype has permission thru the firewall to open them. It was the same with MSN chat - opens loads of ports because it wants to pick one at random. YIM is not the best chat out there but it's no worse than Skype and opens less ports.
