Hi all!

Although I like Yahoo 6, I don’t see much advantage to having it. On my desktop computer, (Win98) ICQ doesn’t work properly when I have Yahoo 6 open. On my laptop (Windows XP), ICQ works but audibles on Yahoo 6 don’t. (Says I need Flashplayer, which of course I have).

Any clues?

I’m guessing you have the proper version of Flash. Have you tried closing all other programs before running these two on your PC and laptop? It might be something else interfering with these two things. Do you have an anti-virus or firewall running? Pop-up blocker?

Hi Oreo!

Yes I have Zone Alarm running on both computers… on the desktop, ICQ is still conflicted whether or not I shut down Zone Alarm. On the laptop, I still can’t use audibles whether or not I shut down Zone Alarm. And I think I’ve downloaded the latest FlashPlayer about 40 times… *L*

When I test it, I have no other applications running.
