ok...I understood tidbits but now my question is, what exactly is yahoo's official client doing that gaim cannot, yet? ( if you have explained this earlier please point me to the post ). Can we reproduce what yahoo's doing by using free tools? Generally, firewalls dont block ssl connections so i think u can setup an SSL tunnel into an outside ( unfirewalled proxy ) PC and then connect to the yahoo service. -- Regards, Dinesh A.
