yahoo is working very hard to keep the bots out.
unfortunately the bot makers are breeding faster than rabbits.
all the craziness is yahoo's new anii-bot software.
eventually, they will get the right trick... possibly a captcha screen. you know, where there is a picture of some letters
and numbers that you have to type into a box.

That is a simple question. The ads supporting this are paid for based on the number of users. More bots = more users and higher advertising revenues.

Perhaps Yahoo! enjoys the bot's material. Some of their pics are quite explicite.
