• A reconnection bug has been fixed to where Yahoo! Messenger sometimes wouldn't log back in after disconnection from a boot. Messenger will now reconnect immediately upon disconnection (at least at present).

• Some code cleanup was performed.
• A new feature called "Auto-Resume Chat Session" was added to combat the latest boot exploit from disrupting your chat session. This feature is available in the form of a checkbox in Messenger's sign-in window. This feature is only available in Yahoo! Messenger 8.0 - 9.0. Messenger 8.0/8.1 users will need to click on the "Sign In" button after being disconnected to have the Auto-Resume Chat Session feature kick in. Messenger 9.0 users don't have to click the "Sign In" button as reconnecting is done automatically for you upon disconnection.
• YTK Pro Ignore Message "Blocking" has been fixed and now works properly.
• A new chat server has been added to YTK Pro's Server Selector under Advanced Options.

• Added Auto-Gawd Mode with new updated Auto-Trigger routines (Labelled as experimental for now).
• Updated Anti-Crack mechanism.
• Prior versions are now unsupported as this is a mandatory update.
• Allow/Disallow Voice feature updated
• Minor Code Cleanup and Optimisation

• Release Notes:
• Updated our proprietary Packet Profiling Engine for Auto-Gawd to detect and Gawd you against additional malformed packet types and unknown sub-types such as the now heavily abused Plug-in packets.
• Updated YTK's "About" window to include your machine's IP and Mac Addresses.
• Added a new Chat Room slash Command, /ad, so you can now Advertise YTKPro.com to the room if you wish. If you want to help "spread the word" about YTK Pro then this is the way to do it! Cool
• Additional Note: The /ad command is randomized to broadcast 2 different adverts; one with an obfuscated URL and one with just the domain name (to defeat clients that block links).
• Corrected a bug where the Captcha Box sometimes wouldn't be "On Top" and would pop up behind the chat room screen (mainly a Vista issue).
• Checked all features in YTK Pro to make sure that they are 100% compatible with the newly-released Yahoo! Messenger version 9.0 beta build 907. Messenger beta build 907 'broke' the refresh voice button so this has been fixed (thanks to Master for spotting this).
• Added in an integrated right-click menu with 3 options so you can now mark a user as "safe", remove them from the safe list and view their profiles while they're talking on the mic. You must have Quick Voice Ignoring of Voiced Users on the Mic under Additional Settings (Additional...) ENABLED to use this brand new feature!

• Added extended emotes to PMs, Conferences and Chat Rooms in YM 9.0 (works with 7, 8 and 9 versions of YM of course too)
• Fixed a right-click menu creation bug in 8.x builds
• Added in additional packet inspection rules primarily to combat against malformed packet types
• "Chat Error" messages that are dropped (not seen by others) are now retransmitted so you will lose no text when posting in chat rooms (this is a huge Yahoo! server bug!).
• Fixed a small file transfer bug.

• Release Notes:
  
• YTK Pro main menu & items in chat were fixed to be functional again
• YTK Pro PM menus & items were added back.
• YTK Pro buddy list menu and "chat" menu were added back.
• Deny-a-Buddy (for LCS, WLM and SameTime) was updated to work with YMSGv16.
• New smilies were added to the smiley array to be monitored for abuse in chat rooms (repeat emoticons).
• Gap was closed between chat room window and tiny event logger.
• Chat connection relay has been updated and is now more dynamic along with it's IPC mechanism.
• PC-2-PC Call Blocking has been completely redone and works properly.
• Integrate Captcha Option has been reworked.
• Protocol Reversion was REMOVED if using Messenger 9.0 as it doesn't correctly support it anymore (if you wish to deny-a-buddy Yahoo! users you will have to use 8.0 or 8.1 to do so!).
• Extended Emotions List is on hold (and currently disabled) in 9.0 as we haven't added the new smilies to it yet.
• Chat Room Window Position Coordinates are now working properly again.
• Maximize Chat Room Window is now working properly again.
• Right-click menu on names in Chat Room User List has been reinstated.
• Right-click menu on names/nicknames on Chat Room Screen has been reinstated.
• User State Reflection bug in Recent Ignore Bin was fixed.
• Code was taken out to "patch" Nickname/Location exploit as Yahoo! has now officially fixed it themselves.
• Chat Room Word Filter was taken out in 9.0 as a new filter1.enc file is regenerated after deleting/renaming the file. This option in YTK Pro will be reinstated once we fix it in a later build.
• New packet types were added to YTK Pro's Packet Profiling System and are now monitored.
• Backwards compatibility was preserved from Messenger versions 7.02 to 8.1 (all builds).
• YTK Pro PM menus got a "haircut" and no longer have checked options (since they didn't belong there to begin with).
• Updated Firewall Compatibility Mode (FCM).
• Numerous other compatibility changes were made to make YTK Pro Messenger 9.0 compatible with Windows 2K, XP, 2K3 and Vista 32-bit Editions.
