Yahoo has issued security patches for its Yahoo Instant Messenger and Yahoo Chat clients in an effort to fix a buffer overflow vulnerability discovered in the software.
Instant messaging is often characterised as a frivolous application used mostly by home users. But its business use has increased dramatically in the past year, thanks to a plethora of IM features beyond text messaging.
Yahoo is set to release late Wednesday a new Web-based version of its instant-messaging application that lets people use Yahoo Messenger on any browser and any Internet-connected computer rather than having to download it to a hard drive.
Yahoo on Wednesday in the US began blocking Cerulean Studios' Trillian software from communicating with its instant messaging service in its latest step to fence its popular client from third-party integrators.

Trillian is a full-featured, standalone, skinnable chat client that supports AIM, ICQ, MSN, Yahoo Messenger, and IRC.
Free voice calls and voicemail, built-in Web searches, and drag-and-drop photo sharing make Yahoo's new instant messenger a fun, powerful IM tool.
Yahoo Messenger, along with ICQ, offers the most options for customisation and everyday use at home or in the office.
