Hi !

I chat in a room in yahoo chat but I am having problems with some bad
people that all they do is swearing on the mic all the time and booting
everyone trying to use the mic or to talk to them to stop.The problem
that I can not block them because they use special software that
protect them from being blocked.

If there is any solution or anything I can do to boot them from that
room, please provide me with.
Looking forward to getting an answer to my issue.

Simo from Colorado.

If you have problems getting booted out of a chat room, you might try using
another chat client. I believe there are plenty of alternative clients that
work with Yahoo. Or, better still, you might try not going to those
particular chat rooms.

I don't think there's any software that will safeguard you against all the
bored teenagers who like to rant and cuss and cause problems in chat rooms.
As they say, "On the Internet, nobody knows you're a dog."
