YahELite

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

YahELite is a third-party Yahoo! chat program, created by David J. "DeepThawt" Binette. It differs slightly from the Yahoo! Instant Messenger(YIM) program in both appearance and function.

[edit] YahELite vs Yahoo! Instant Messenger

In appearance, YahElite is less appealing than YIM, with less colors, less rounded edges, and hardly any moving graphics. Most see this as a drawback, though it helps make YahElite a smaller program, memory-wise.

YahELite has a compendium of functions and options that YIM lacks, such as:

  • enhanced anti-spam options
  • less overall bootability, with 'chat armour' option for increased boot protection
  • automatic malicious chatterbot filter, known as Wildcard ignore
  • the option of chosing your own port and server
  • customizable colors, sizes, font styles, and backgrounds
  • privacy options
