MemberQuote:I assume tim just used the Plural key like everybody else?Yes, its the easiest way of enabling and disabling multiple instances of YIM 8.0
Easy meaing you don’t have to change the YahooMessenger.exe binary data
and also easier to use for those who don’t like messing with the registry editor.It creates the DWord Value for you, and also sets the Value Data.
When you load my program it will look to see if you already have a DWord created.
If one is there it then checks to see if the Value Data is 0 or if its equal or greater
then 1. If there is no DWord or if the Data Value is 0 then it knows its disabled.
If its equal to or greater then 1 if knows it is enabled. If you already had a DWord
created before using my program it will allow you to disable it without having to go
to the registry editor to do it.September 19, 2006 at 7:12 am #152264Dermot
ParticipantYeah, same as me.
btw, this is what i use to toggle nicknames on/off on the fly tim.
Public Declare Function FindWindow Lib “user32” Alias “FindWindowA” (ByVal lpClassName As String, ByVal lpWindowName As String) As Long
Public Declare Function SendMessage Lib “user32” Alias “SendMessageA” (ByVal hwnd As Long, ByVal wMsg As Long, ByVal wParam As Long, lParam As Any) As LongFunction StopNN()
Call SendMessage(FindWindow(“imclass”, vbNullString), &H111, 642, 0)
End FunctionFunction ShowNN()
Call SendMessage(FindWindow(“imclass”, vbNullString), &H111, 642, 0)
End Function
[/CODE]..of course you must do the toggle before messenger closes.
You can add it to your patch if you want.[CODE]

KeymasterI started just to see if there was anything that would not work with Tim’s Ad remover. I saw no problems after I blocked the main messenger AD.
I will get a new pc, once my pc can’t handle the software I use. Once that happens, updateing is pointless becouse the things that need to be updated costs more then a new pc. Except I most likely will upgrade to 2GB of memory soon.
Before you say that is dumb, I am talking about like three years from now and not the top of the line pc just newer. I just got this pc a few month ago.September 19, 2006 at 11:14 pm #152269imported_Ven0m
MemberThe only problems I find with 716 are that display pictures aren’t working for me again. Just black boxes (711 worked), and they still haven’t fixed the chat word filter bug.

MemberI am currently using Yahoo Messenger 8.0.0.716 and the display pictures are displaying properly for me.

MemberThis is a great little utility Tim, but it causes a momentary pause when trying to view a webcam which I really hate. Any way of fixing this? About the chat transition ad, that guy who makes ytunnel knows how to get rid of it. Has anybody ever asked him how to do it?
September 22, 2006 at 4:12 am #152261Jeff Hester
KeymasterWhen You block the webcam ADs you must keep the folder for the program were it is. the block.html is in the folder. and keys get set in the registry to blank.html.
you can always reblock the webcam Ads again, and it will fix it.
I think Yahoo patched 8.0.0.716’s chat transition ad so its harder to block. but not sure

MemberQuote:but it causes a momentary pause when trying to view a webcam which I really hateWhen removing the Webcam Ads a registry entry is added. The same method
has been used in the past to remove the Webcam Ads. Also when you view
someone’s cam it connects to the Cam Server and connects to the Ad/s link.
The Ad/s are not stored on the Cam Server. So if you are getting a delay
then its most likely from the Cam Server. My program does not make any
changes to the Cam Server. As for the Transition Ad the normal method of
blocking it seems to no longer works. I am sure in time someone will find a
new way. Also remember that the Transition Ad is only displayed once each
time you start the messenger. As for your question about the programmer of
YTunnel. There is no need to ask him as he would probably reply to buy his
program if you don’t wish to see the ads. I made my simple little program for
the people who do not wish to spend $17 on YTunnel.September 22, 2006 at 9:26 pm #152274enigma666
MemberThanks for the replies guys. I was able to get rid of the momentary pause before viewing a webcam by doing what Chris said about keeping the blank.html file in the folder. Thanks for making this great little utility free for us Tim, as it is a waste of money in my opinion to buy Ytunnel as it never gets updated on time.
