Ik heb nog Y! Messenger 6.0 geïnstalleerd staan; ik gebruikte het wel in het verleden maar ik kan mij niet herinneren dat ik met advertenties bekogeld werd. Wie heeft dit geinstalleerd en ziet plotseling advertenties?
Het volgende is uit de voorwaarden voor 7.5b811:
6. ADVERTISING IN THE SERVICE
* The graphical user interface for the Service may display banner
advertising to you from time to time in or around your friend
list or on one of the optional tabs that allow you to view other
Yahoo! services, such as stock quotes, sports, calendar, games,
and news headlines.
* From time to time some of the Yahoo! services included
in the Service may contain a link to subscribe to certain
premium services.
* Stock alerts may contain a banner advertisement.
Closing the stock alert window ends the display of this
advertisement. Stock alerts can be enabled or disabled in
your preferences setting.
* Certain versions of the Service display a window
showing recent news, information, and advertising about
products and services each time you sign on. You can disable
this window in those versions of the Service by unchecking
"Show Yahoo! Insider when I log on" in your preferences
setting.
* Selecting the Chat option in the Service generates a
list of chat rooms accompanied by an advertisement. In each
chat room, banner advertisements are displayed at the bottom
of each chat window. These advertisements may change
periodically as long as the chat window is open. Closing the
window ends the display of these advertisements.
* Certain versions of the Service contain a feature
called IMVironments. You can use this feature to add
colourful interactive visual and sometimes audiovisual
backdrops to your IMs. Once you select an IMVironment and IM
someone, the recipient will see that IMVironment in his or
her IM window the next time you send an IM (if she is using
a compatible version of the Service). IMVironments may be
sponsored by advertisers and may contain advertiser-
sponsored links. You can disable the sending and receiving
of IMVironments in your preferences setting.
* Certain versions of the Service contain a feature
called Audibles. You can use this feature to send short
visual and sometimes audiovisual messages through your IMs
to friends with compatible versions of the Service. You can
disable the sending and receiving of Audibles in your
preferences setting.
* Certain versions of the Service allow you to send and
receive images from a webcam. When you view another person's
webcam, the window in which their image is displayed may
contain advertisements that change periodically as long as
the window is open. Closing the window ends the display of
these advertisements.
* If you type a search into the query box provided in
some versions of the Service, results of your search will be
displayed in a web browser accompanied by banner
advertisements and/or paid sponsor results.
