If you use any chat module, eventually you are going to have people that really, really like you or really, really hate you. I made the mistake of camming with the friends that are serving in Iraq and didn't see any harm in letting a couple other people view. That led to a lot of harassment to the point where I think I am going to have to ditch this screen name and create another one.
Want to see what I had to put up with from one user:
(before you even say it, I did try to block him but he was using an older version of Yahoo that made it impossible to block him)

So, how do you deal with people like this if you can't block or ignore them? Most of the time they create a temporary screen name and by the time someone at Yahoo gets an email or report, they have changed the name ten times.

Ya, these types are pervs and degenerates, you know typical guys... LOL Step on their ego and you're the one with the problem. I always thought it was hilarious that in high school, if you DIDN'T put out for a guy he called you a sl*t or Wh**e. HUH? So what does that make you if you DO put out!!! LOL
Turn him in to Yahoo and ignore him, do not answer him at all, not a single word. Eventually he'll get tired of talking to himself and go away. On the new Yahoo you can appear invisible or visible to individual people on your list if you want. Might try that.
Good Luck

Keep the email and report it to yahoo. You can also proscute depending on your local laws. I had a sister who was being harrassed on a messageboard. Because she kept the log of everything that was said and when this said person said lets harass her and made statements about her daughter. She was able to file charges against this person. Come to find this person was a sister to a cop in Cinninatti, Ohio. So she knew better than to do stuff like that.

you might want to switch over to msn msg..their blocker is better.
