This simply means that if a user is available on a webcam while using Yahoo! Messenger and if any of his friends’ requests to view him a notification is sent to the user asking for his approval. In case the broadcasting user denies the request the requesting party cannot to view the webcam. This configuration is suitable for people who have several Yahoo! Messenger online friends added in their messenger lists and want to ensure that only trusted ones can view their webcams.
