Their is no way to disable it.
Only way is Install Yahoo Messenger for only 1 User and Password protect it.

This is possible by deleting/editing files in X:-program files- yahoo directory
but i don't know which files to edit.
I was member of yahoo underground group where i learned this. But this is not working on new version of yahoo and the group is also closed.

Which version of Yahoo Messenger are you using ?

I may give it a try tweaking the files and settings for that particular version.

My periodic table contains only 1 element : the element of Surprise.

@daredevil
Never use your real age at yahoo because people of your age are not allowed in chat room.
I use age 21 on my IDs
