You have to do a couple at a time. Yahoo doesn’t like it when you attempt to delete all names from your ignore list so they ignore any requests after awhile. If none are being deleted, check your cookie settings in IE to make sure it’s allowed first before deleting them.
I’d delete maybe 5 at a time, wait 10 minutes, then delete 5 more and repeat the cycle. After you delete the first 5 wait a couple minutes, sign out then back in and check and see if the people you deleted are still there or are deleted. 😉
i have a question for yahoo, WHEN ARE THEY GOING TO KILL ALL THE BOTS, is there no way for them to control them? I think they like having their system flooded with bots.
Well, nobody has the answer to that except Yahoo themselves, and they don’t see interested.
Their attempt to control the bot situation in chat rooms-the chat room word verification (CAPTCHA) was more or less bypassed with 30% accuracy with OCR readers, thus the bots are back in full force rendering the CAPTCHA useless.
I don’t see any viable solution to this situation anytime soon unfortunately… I just hope I’m wrong.
