It is unfortunate.  Yahoo is working on controlling them through reporting.\n\nThis is how bots work.  These people are paid well to do this.  A person creates a program to be able to function in a chat room and runs down the list of chatters and sends them a message hoping to get them into their site.  These programs are sophisticated enough to create multiple anonymous accounts that Yahoo finds difficult to monitor.\n\nIn the future, to prevent these from happening, Yahoo can create email verification or "characters in image" verification to slow these down, however the people who use bots will eventually create technology that surpasses that.\n\nI do not work for Yahoo, but I am confident that Yahoo is tackling these issues daily and trying to find ways to make the Internet a better experience for its users.\n\nI used to have AOL and Netzero.  SBC Yahoo has been the best provider for me and they seem to take bots and spam more seriously than other providers.

Wow, with that many I would select them all and "move them to junk mail folder"....then you can click on the "empty" button.\n\nHope that works for you.\n\nAlso, go to yahoo chat help line.  They may be able to do it for you from there.

All user rooms were eliminated from yahoo chat due to alot of perceived illegal activity. Only the yahoo rooms themselves are left, and they're filled with bots.

When a person messages you in Yahoo, there is a option called "Report as Spam" in the window.Just enable that option.you will not get any more messages from him :)

On your Yahoo messenger "control panel", select "messenger", then "preferences", then "ignore list". When you get to the ignore list, select "ignore anyone who is not on my messenger list", then click "apply", then "ok". \n\nFrom that point, only people who already are on your messenger list will be able to im you.\n\nHave a nice day.

There is no way to get rid of it, unfortunately.\n\nThe worst thing to do is to reply to any of them. No matter what it says, never reply.\n\nThe only thing you can do is set up Junk Email filters to hopefully filter out the majority of it.

EXCELLENT Question!!!!\n\nI stopped chatting in yahoo rooms long ago because of that. It really sucks. On Y!A you cant call a rooster a c0ck without it being edited or deleted but you have porn ads and bots all over every chat room! Obvious where yahoo decided to spend their money, yes?

Just open up your spam folder and find it. Click on it and then click "not spam". That is if you are using Yahoo.
