ok, i chat on yahoo quite a bit, and 1), there are now booters, etc, for java 2) the booters do just go into the room, boot, and leave 3)ignoring a booter doesn't always work because of what's called protocol booters. The only way that i know of to make sure you don't get booted is to log in through Chat 2.0 at the login site, or go to www.lagmaster.net and download ymlite, and use that. if you want voice, use 2.0, because lite doesn't have it, yet
