Yahoo Messenger 9.0

Finally Yahoo! has officially released final version of Yahoo! Messenger 9.0.

Yahoo has released its popular IM for Windows XP and Vista, and comes packed with many new features including the new and improved user-interface.

The most interesting feature that I would like to mention first is the Pingbox, a new application that you can embed into your blog, website or social network page where visitors can IM you anonymously (or they can identify themselves) and you can also reply them back without revealing your Yahoo! ID.

Free POP3 access for Yahoo Mail

Saturday, January 12th, 2008

Today, I am going to tell on how to get Free POP3 access for your Yahoo Mail account.

Yahoo Pops!

What is POP3?
POST OFFICE PROTOCOL. More on it @ Wiki.

If your email provider provides free POP3 service, you need not login to the account to check your mails. You can use email clients like Microsoft Outlook, Incredimail and many others on your PC.

You just have to configure your client to access your mail that's all! As soon as you have a new mail in your Inbox, the client will download the mail for you. So you need not login to your Inbox for newer mails.

Is Yahoo Chat safe ?

Monday, December 3rd, 2007

Want to ask you "Is Yahoo Chat safe ?". Think....

My answer:
well, it depends...

I came to know from my 10+2 friend Maqsood that one can peep into others yahoo chat messages...
Lets start from the networking perspective. As most of you know, any data in network is passed as a packet. Every packet has a destination IP address, source IP address and the message itself.
In this case yahoo chat messages are also transmitted as packets. Sniffer can be used to monitor the network traffic or packets flowing in the network.
Yahoo Messenger
On the net you can find yahoo sniffer which sniffs packets to capture yahoo chat packets.

Now the question is... If you have sniffer running on your PC, sniffer can read only those packets that are coming to your system i.e., only your buddy's messages. then how come you can get your neighbor's chat messages?
