yahoo messenger forever 
After a 6 month period of dead silence here, I bring forth brand new Yahoo! Messenger updates!
First of all, Iâve officially got HTTP file transfer working for Yahoo. Took me a while to realize that the server unintentionally deleted queried files when Yahoo! requested their file size before actually starting the download. Also got the server acknowledgement for that fixed too (I used the wrong packet status and thatâs what caused Yahoo to crash in my previous tests). Credit to the Digsby clientâs source code for pointing those out. 
Second, Iâm slowly working towards improving P2P support on the server side so that Yahoo! clients can utilize it to its full advantage. Firstly by removing some obsolete code assuming that one of the key-value fields auto-unescaped itself mysteriously when that was actually due to the multidict implementation we were using at the time (we now use our own custom one tailored to our needs), and now I plan to re-add P2P messaging support as I stupidly assumed it would mess up communication with other frontends when they wonât be able to respond to the request anyway. I assume adding the service that aids in that will also make the other P2P actions more reliable, which I hope is the case.
Other than that there isnât much to talk about here (nothing about WLM 2009 either) and Yahoo! support alongside WLM '09 and IRCâs should be out in due time.

OK so it looks like Yahoo Messengerâs one of those old-timey applications that thinks everyoneâs still on the open internet (to put it in plain English, it pretends everyoneâs still on dial-up or plain broadband and havenât moved on to LANs) and so for P2P it uses the local IPs of the running computers instead of an appropriate public one. If you still donât know what Iâm getting at, sending the local IPs instead of the public one will make the receiving end think itâs talking about their LAN and not the machine on the other end, which means no P2P can happen. Not much I can do about it since itâs P2P and stuff, unless you have a spare dial-up or non-router connection.
