eh?
I don't understand. What does this have to do with another client
connecting? If you can have n browsers connected to one http server,
then why not n yahoo clients to one yahoo server?
the port scan is in case you're behind a firewall and cannot connect on
port 5050 (like I am).
NOTE: 21 is no longer scanned. That was a leftover entry in the
ChangeLog.
