- default refresh interval is now one second; removed obsolete option to ask user if he is running YM 8

- does not require you to leave YM remember your user and password

- you can format the status with eight media details (most of the same details available in HyperIM's plugin, but with shorter names, and ofcourse not recursive)

- multiple lines in the status
- optional headphones in the status
- up to 255 characters in the status
- optional Busy or Idle icons, together or not with the headphones
- no advertising in the status, not at any time, like many other plugins do.

Installation and Help:::...

1. If you are upgrading from a previous version, close Winamp if it is currently running
2. Download the installer (see the head of this page), which is a ZIP file
3. The installer is inside the archive. Most probably you will be able to double click the file directly from the archive viewer to run the installer
4. If not, extract the file somewhere and run it from there.
5. After the installer is done, open Winamp, go to Preferences, click General purpose list item in lower left panel, and double click Yahoo! Messenger Now Playing to configure the plugin as you like it.
