I’ve been having trouble loading pics to my profile. I noticed an old thread on here about it but was just wondering if anyone had any other info on the error message 999 that shows up after the load fails. First time I ran into this problem and it’s been over a week that I’m still having this issue. I did a reinst. with no luck and upgraded to the latest version of messenger, that still did not help. I wrote to yahoo and was told that it’s an ip issue or spyware problem on my end. I have used two other profiles and pc’s at other locations to test it with the same crummy results of error 999…I figure maybe it is on Yahoo’s end? Buds on my list say they aren’t having this problem so I just can’t figure it out.
I also tried using pics from yahoo and not from my files and it does not let me like it used to..Any feed back is much appreciated….

this can happen for a number of reasons
You could using a proxy or check and see if you’re already doing so then try again.
also moved this thread to the support area of the forum.
February 28, 2007 at 11:11 pm #158751Jeff HesterKeymasterDoes it bring you to the old photos or the new photos?
If it brings you to the old photos all you have to do is setup an account with photos. Then ADD the photo you want to your profile.
If it brings you to the new photos there is nothing you can do
February 28, 2007 at 11:38 pm #158752Jeff HesterKeymasterI just tried to change my photo on my profile and got the same error.
They must be updating
