Yahoo Messenger Profiles

People using Yahoo Messengers at the public places like Internet Cafes,Colleges etc need to bit careful, so that their IDs will not go into wrong hands.Whenever you log in to the Yahoo Messenger, a folder by the name of the Yahoo ID is created under the profiles folder of the Messenger installation.The Messenger uses this to store all the settings,archive messages etc. for that user.When you sign out of the messenger the folder continues to exist and it can be used by mischievous people .So as soon as you sign out, make sure you delete the folder create by your ID.You need not worry about this when the machine you are using is your personal box.
