Yahoo! Account Creator is a program designed to quickly and efficiently create Yahoo! accounts. The accounts created by Yahoo! Account Creator can be used for any of the Yahoo! services such as Yahoo! Mail or Yahoo! Instant Messenger (Y!M).
Yahoo! Account Creator mimics a web browser by requesting the same pages the browser would during a normal account sign-up process. Yahoo! Account Creator then displays the information in a more friendly Windows application and solicits a response from the user for the appropriate information to create an account. Yahoo! Account Creator also has the ability to automatically fill in the requested account information with pre-generated or automated data. As a method to create even more accounts, manual proxy and proxy list support is included.
Quick Start:
Leave all the default settings and press Process under Processing Options (1)
Once a CAPTCHA control has been shown in the queue, enter the CAPTCHA and press Submit for the respective control.
Wait and the next CAPTCHA will appear.
The results are stored in the bots.txt file in the program root directory.
Requirements:
Microsoft .NET Framework 3.5
Troubleshooting:
The application failed to initialize properly (0xc0000135) – This means that the Microsoft .NET Framework is either missing or the incorrect version.
999 Error – You can only process so many accounts per IP address before Yahoo! flags you for abuse.
Uninstallation:
Yahoo! Account Creator does not use Windows Installer so it is safe to just delete the Yahoo! Account Creator Folder. Additionally, Yahoo! Account Creator saves settings in the "C:\Users\*your user*\AppData\Local\YCC" folder under Microsoft Vista or "C:\Documents and Settings\*your user*\Application Data\YCC" folder under Microsoft 2000/XP.

Version 2.0.0 (6/9/2008)
Changed the name Yahoo! Account Creator. This is to remove any confusion between other products such as AIM Bot Maker.
Fixed a problem with version 1.2.1 where the only response would be Invalid SEC Word. This was due to a change in the Yahoo! servers and a new technology that they implemented which profiles the user agent making the request. Yahoo! Account Creator uses a .NET object called httpWebRequest to make connections to Yahoo! Although Yahoo! Account Creator’s requests have been designed to mimic Internet Explorer, The Yahoo! servers analyze the requests at a low enough level to see a difference and possible attack. The Yahoo! servers do not see this as an out right attack or bot so the response from the server is to ask for another CAPTCHA even if the first one has been entered correctly. The back-end logic of Yahoo! Account Creator used to connect to the Yahoo! servers has been changed to allow for multiple CAPTCHA attempts.
A new GUI and appropriate logic. Most of the GUI and logic above the server request class has been rebuilt. This means that this release is truly 2.0 and distinctly different from versions 1.x.
Queue. This is a new queuing system that allows multiple requests to be generated at the same time. This helps to eliminate the waiting time between CAPTCHA image loads. The number of items in the queue is variable but only the top three are visible. Additional information about each request can be found on each queue item and each item can be dismissed by pressing “x”. The last processed request is shown in the Last Request box.
Fixed a bug in the Name Options box where the radio buttons were not being checked. The type of name generation will no longer be saved between sessions.
Proxy support. This is a GUI representation of the properties exposed by the httpWebRequest object. Proxies are not fully supported and should be used at your own risk. The address field requires a fully qualified URI and must contain “http://” or “https://”. The use of localhost is not permitted (.NET limitation). I also did not implement a fancy multiple proxy list scheme as I have found that most of the public proxies do not support registering Yahoo! accounts due to SSL restrictions on the proxy server. If you use this function I suggest the use of a high quality and most likely paid proxy server. If the proxy server returns an unexpected result or the httpWebRequest object throws an exception, Yahoo! Account Creator will not die gracefully.
User Dictionary name option. A new name generation method where you can provide your own dictionary of names to be used.
Rotate servers. Now that Yahoo! Account Creator has a queue, it is only natural that the servers should be rotated while making requests.
Statistics for each server.
Many other things that I can not remember now.
Version 1.2.0 (1/10/08)
Yahoo! added a domain (domain=yahoo.com) entry to their registration process
Updated registration POST to include domainUpdated on the fly validation to include domain
Checks for updatesAdded Donate function to About
Added a reference to ICSharpCode.SharpZipLib.dll
Ability to save and reset form information on a user basis
Added HTTPHelper source to Yahoo! Account Creator source for debugging
Added debugging output to HTTPHelper
Version 1.1.0 (11/12/2007)
Around Mid-September 2007, Yahoo! changed the way they processed signup requests. This update mostly reflects those changes. Only minor changes were made to the GUI.
It works again.
Changed the internal modBotCommands control to use the HTTPHelper DLL. This makes reading the code much easier.
Made most of the server strings dynamic.
Implemented new POST variables.
Removed a few check images that are no longer used.
Implemented the new "on the fly" validation of user data. This is used both to show invalid data and to set the ID as valid on the server. Even if you have valid data, if this step is not processed the name will never be activated. The main sequence will show that you completed successfully but when you login for the first time you will be told that the ID does not exist.
The GUI uses the on the fly validation so you do not waste some of your missed tries.
Yahoo! now does not permit a number as the first character in a username. Implemented.
A valid ZIP code is now enforced. There is no good way to mathematically calculate ZIP codes so I am not importing them from a text file. Only US ZIP codes are implemented at this time.
Tab order corrected.
Reset function.
Blank line in bots file fixed.
Various other fixes.
