Participantas i asked in another thread, what would changing their font size do? it’s not that the characters are going off his screen, he can’t see the messages at all. merely changing the font wont help

>>> Tools/Security Tab/Click the Internet (globe) icon and click the Custom Level button / Scroll down to Scripting. Enable the following: Active scripting-allow paste operations via script/Scripting of Java applets are all enabled
then restart messenger.
Btw-is this problem widespread(ie-all your friends)or is it just one person on your friends list-(that you can’t see their text or message)? You could be lagging/or possibly infected with spyware.
Hard to know,worth running a spyware scanner either way.

MemberI have seen were people use in a room, when they type in the room, I can see everything because have override others’ fonts on my settings, while others are unable to see the type. Then when the font size is changed by the first person, others are able to see. This also applies to PM’s. So try to change your fonts, and have your friends try that also. Check to make sure your fonts aren’t set to override your friend’s fonts. Yahoo is funny about fonts, have seen lots of problems with fonts. I don’t know if it because some people’s fonts don’t match, or because it is because of something else. Tiger, I just know that changing of fonts usually fixes a problem similiar to this one posted, it is a simple fix if it works.
There may be a scripting problem as mentioned above, if what Tinethle says to do doesn’t work, try installing script 5.6 from microsoft http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/info.aspx?na=90&p=&SrcDisplayLang=en&SrcCategoryId=&SrcFamilyId=c717d943-7e4b-4622-86eb-95a22b832caa&u=http%3a%2f%2fdownload.microsoft.com%2fdownload%2f2%2f8%2fa%2f28a5a346-1be1-4049-b554-3bc5f3174353%2fscripten.exe
