Where you ever curious what happened if you'd start talking to the yahoo
helper? I was, after Louise told me that she got kicked off yahoo when she
tried to. So I decided to investigate why my yahoo would randomly
disconnect. This is the conversation I had.
Note how the yahoohelper spells 'familiar' wrong, I highlighted it with
an italic font.
lister373: excuse me?
YahooHelper: Hi there lister373! How are you doing? I am an automated
robot and I'm here to help you get familar with Yahoo! Messenger.
Type some text in the window below and click 'SEND' to talk to me.
lister373: why does my yahoo randomly disconnect?
YahooHelper: Great, now we're talking! Did you know that Yahoo!
Messenger allows you to keep track of all your friends and see when they are
online? If your friend does not have messenger yet, click on the 'FRIENDS'
button and select Invite a friend to get Messenger. If your friend already
has a Yahoo! ID, just click the 'ADD' button and you will see a smiley face
next to their name when they are online. Type below and click 'SEND' to
continue.
lister373: erm.
YahooHelper: Once your friends have Yahoo! Messenger running, there
are a lot of things you can do with them. Try sending them an Instant
Message. Just double-click their name to send them an Instant Message. It's
faster than email and cheaper than a phone call! We're Instant Messaging
each other right now! Keep talking and I'll tell you more.
lister373: yes I know that, but I was wondering...
YahooHelper: If you want to talk to several people at once, you can
create your own Instant Chat Room. Just click on the 'MESSENGER' menu item
and the select Start a Conference. To have an even richer experience, try
talking live with your friends using Messenger. It's just like a phone call
except free! All you need is a computer microphone and speakers. Try
clicking on the 'MESSENGER' menu item and then select Start a Voice Chat.
Keep talking and I'll tell you more.
lister373: that's nice, but it doesn't actually address my problem
here..
YahooHelper: Waiting for your friends to sign up? Use Yahoo!
Messenger to see if you have new Yahoo! Mail. Get an account at: http://mail.yahoo.com.
You can also use Messenger to keep track of your favorite stocks, news and
more! Click on the tabs near the bottom of the Messenger application to see
what else Messenger can do for you. You know what to do to keep talking...
lister373: erm. yes.
YahooHelper: We have more help for you if you need it. Click on the
'HELP' menu item and then 'YAHOO! MESSENGER HELP' to see our full help area.
To get more tips, type /help while you are talking with me and we have some
basic online instructions for you.
lister373: no I am really only interested in finding out why my yahoo
decides to disconnect itself randomly
YahooHelper: Well 'lister373', it was great talking to you! Have fun!
lister373: why youuo.... X-(
YahooHelper: Hi there lister373! How are you doing? I am an automated

I think it was actually mocking me there by saying:"Well 'lister373', it
was great talking to you! Have fun!", don't you think so?
