The spammer MAN is an automated response program based somewhere in China. Yahoo staff has suspended that account as well as the following...

The spambots will likely continue unless and until Yahoo puts something in place to require human intervention (i.e., seeing a photo with a word in it and typing that word in). That would at least get rid of bots, but it would be painful for humans too.

I think their just gonna keep coming. They will eventually overload Yahoo Messenger like they did with AIM. AOL keeps puting new versions of AIM out, but it doesn't help. Bots are still on it.

they will be here just like in chat. Yahoo will do nothing to stop them they don't want to be bothered and care even less about those that use their services
