Another possibility is that Winduhs user will get tired of having to upgrade the `official' messenger software evry two weeks and give up on Yahoo altogether. I doubt if Yahoo can change its protocol that often, unless their own messenger mutates from time to time (remember AOL leaving a buffer overflow in their AIM client so that they could tweak it remotely?)
