Since Friday Afternoon I have not been able to log into yahoo voice servers. When I attempt, it completely freezes my PC and I have to reboot. This is happening on both PCs, behind a linksys router. I had not experienced ANY problems until Frida 6-25-2004. I also uninstalled 6.0, and reinstalled 5.6, ran a virus scan, ran a system restore, and called my ISP…nothing. Is anyone else having this problem? I am in North Carolina By the way. Thanks. Richard
June 26, 2004 at 7:08 pm #42803woow1MemberHi,
This is th exact problem I am having too. I am in South Carolina. I had my computer freezing and got the new version back and it doesn’t crash but the still call do voice.
Can some help regarding this matter
June 26, 2004 at 11:26 pm #42771mdandeMemberyou might try running your audio set wizard it helped a friend of mine fix his voice chat….
on your friends list click help then audio set wizard make sure it is realy quit when you can do it.June 27, 2004 at 2:56 am #42804woow1MemberThis doesn’t work. It doesn’t have any problem. We can use other software MSN messanger and netmeeting fine and voice works perfectly fine. How come it effects only Yahoo? can someone help?
June 27, 2004 at 3:01 am #42774devildawgdadMemberEven the wizard is locking me up when I get to the conference part of the wizard….this is the weirdest thing ive ever seen. Richard
June 27, 2004 at 7:32 am #42805woow1MemberYes Same story with me. It does the same with the wizard also
June 27, 2004 at 2:35 pm #42775devildawgdadMemberWho Is your ISP? I use charter cable internet. Im in Asheville. I have had absolutely no luck with this problem. Also signed in without the router, same problem. Also signed in using my friends username, still locked up. Signed in on a brand new PC I built last week, installed messenger, and it locked up. I know it isnt the router, I know it usnt the PC now and I know it isnt my username. However, I have not tried to sign in outside my home, so I do not know whether or not mt IP address has been blocked from voice or not, who knows, but seems like no one has any ideas. Again…who is your ISP??
Thanks Richard
June 27, 2004 at 3:33 pm #42806woow1MemberNow don’t tell me its charter which is giving me this crazy problem. I am using CHARTER to.:( dang charter is so messed up.
June 27, 2004 at 11:05 pm #42776devildawgdadMemberCharter now says to unplug cable modem and unplug cable connection for at leat 12-14 hours to try and pick up a new IP address. This will be the last resort it looks like

June 28, 2004 at 12:16 am #42808froggimoeMemberDevildawgdad…you described my problem as if you were here…I’ve tried everything….other than buying a new computer…please let me know if you get any help…I still have dial-up here with a local ISP…I was considering Charter Cable as it just became available here….after reading your comments, I’m confused…I’m in Louisiana….please help…Sally

Charter is aware of my problems but I think that my IP address has been hacked. They are now monitoring the situation, I will post more tomorrow. Im thinking it isn not Charter but a hacked IP address. That can happen on any connection.
RichardJune 28, 2004 at 2:16 am #42809froggimoeMemberRichard…Thanks for the information…I’m hoping that you and Charter figure out the problem soon…I have 2 phone lines here at home…will my IP address change if I use the other number? …Or if I change from dial-up with the local ISP to Charter Cable, will the IP address be different?…sorry if that’s a stupid question, but most of this is puzzling to me (and I’m a brunette…haha)…I really appreciate your help…I was really getting frustrated with Yahoo…but then again I miss hearing my friends in the country music rooms too…take care…Sally
June 28, 2004 at 2:56 am #42778devildawgdadMemberYOUR IP ADDRESS IS PROBABLY LOCKED IN ON DIALUP, WHEN YOU SWITCH TO CABLE YOU OBVIOUSLY WILL HAVE A NEW IP ADDRESS, SO IF THIS IS OUR PROBLEM GO AHEAD AND GET CABLE OR CHANGE ISPS, IT CANT HURT EVERYTRHING ELSE HAS BEEN TRIED
June 28, 2004 at 5:57 am #42772LucifinaMemberHmmm ya’ll have an interesting situation. If you have a cable modem your ip addresses usually changes every so often. If you have a problem, your isp should be able to ping you and send another to your modem, which to me, is weird the way Charter handled the situation. I understand the unpluging of the modem because that is a “hard reset” and usually helps the situation. If not, it may be your isp, I’m in New Orleans and use Cox, and once in awhile I have to do the same thing. Good Luck.
June 28, 2004 at 6:30 am #42814peaMemberI’m in south carolina and have problems with voice as well. I have done everything possible.. I guess i’ll just wait for them to FIX the glitch and in the mean time suffer without voice..
