I was told if I use Ytunnel and yahoo finds our I will loose my account because Yahoo makes no money off of Ytunnel is this true?
Technically, they can do that to anyone anytime without any further notice. Check their TOS/policy carefully. They are aware of YTunnel and other illegal programs, they usually patch to block those from functioning.
They wont know you are using Y!Tunnel, how could they?
As far as the servers are concerned, you are connecting through messenger, because all the packets just look the same. Y!Tunnel just stops the ad requests going on, and ad packets coming in etc…
When people use to report after using Y!Tunnel their IDs stopped working, this was at a time that most people’s IDs stopped functioning, Y!Tunnel or no Y!Tunnel.
Freddy is correct on this.
Ytunnel is not an illegal program. Ytunnel was and is still listed in the Yahoo own directories at the bottom:
http://dir.yahoo.com/Computers_and_Internet/Software/Internet/Instant_Messaging/Yahoo__Messenger/
Yahoo has been aware of Ytunnel for a long time and using Ytunnel will not get you locked out because you are using it.
Illegal programs do not make the Yahoo directories pages, only clean and legal versions from the official site do.
There are illegal Ytunnels out there and getting Ytunnel elsewhere is going to cause a multitude of problems, especially with issues of a few trojans that are embedded in most cracks for Ytunnel, visual basic scripting kinds, and this gives legitimate programmers a bad name and for their product, any product.
Ytunnel is perfectly legit and it does not disrupt the chat service in any way. It amazes me that one person is doing the work that a whole corporate team should be doing. Check out the authors draft letter to Yahoo Inc sometime, that will pretty much explain everything.
