YahDecode is a simple Windows application that does just one thing: it lets you read your Yahoo Messenger conversation logs without signing in with your username and password.
That of course means that you can read the archives of any user who used Yahoo Messenger on your computer, but keep in mind that the application needs the conversation history to be enabled in Yahoo’s messaging application.
What makes the whole program quite pleasant is the interface which nicely organizes the details provided by a conversation log.
You can thus see the date of conversation, the name of the other contact or conference host as well as the profile you used to chat at that time.
Of course, a double click on a given log is enough to open the file and read the whole chat, so you won’t really spend much time getting used to the app.
Just like expected, YahDecode flirts quite well with computer resources, which means older machines can run the program without any problem.
Another, let’s say “special”, feature is the one that allows the user to enable conversation logging for any ID that uses Yahoo Messenger on the local computer, without even known his username and password.
That’s why YahDecode is definitely worth a chance, and in case you’re a Yahoo Messenger fan, chances are that it will become a must have.
