KeymasterI also have experienced being booted by the same person over and over. I have a really good firewall, but a firewall only protects your local machine and not the chat server.
A few options to help prevent the problem may be not hanging around in the same chat room as the person who is bugging you, but yes, what if it’s the only room where your friends are?
I try to switch my ID every 6 months, mostly to get rid of junk mail, but lately it’s been more to avoid booters and other pranksters in chat and on messenger.
You can also make good use of things like invisible mode and using your privacy settings to not allow anyone who’s not on your friends list to PM you.
Another thing I use to help prevent boots is an extended filter file. You can get instructions on how to do that here:
Something I found out with this particular person who was bugging me is that sometimes just clicking their name into your ignore list doesn’t work. You have to go into your Privacy Settings and manually type their ID in for it to stay in there.
Well, I hope that helps. Happy Chatting Everyone!July 25, 2003 at 2:45 pm #94810Oreo
MemberCYB…you’re not invisible….but that’s the reason this person is finding you. #1 Do you put your new ID’s on the same account?? If this person has you added to his/her list they can find you simply by following you. Also, if you have your status (online/off line status) on your profile this person could simply look when you are online and follow you. You can follow a few courses of action.
#1 Take your status OFF of your profile. GO to account info. and tick the little box that is underneath all of your ID’s and it mentions profile status. #2 go to http://www.backdoors.to/yahoo and go to the link on the right side which says “Deny a Buddy” Click it, log in (this one is safe to log into….but many aren’t so don’t always trust every site), then put the ID that you think this person has under and deny away. The directions are obvious when you see the site.
#3 Don’t take things so personally on here…..no one INTENTIONALLY ignored you. I hope this helps. Please let us know if you need more help. I am just a lowly member of this site….but we’ve all got the same goal in mind….we all want people to enjoy themselves online. 🙂August 5, 2003 at 12:59 am #94820ivebeena_bad_bad_girl
