Yahoo! Messenger v8.1.0.249 Released (Latest Version)

Will check it out and update my Adestroy to patch it in the morning.

Thanks venom 🙂

I sure hope Dermot add the show real ID name/surnamame toggle again. 🙂
.wysiwyg { background-attachment: scroll; background-repeat: repeat; background-position: 0% 0%; background-color: #f2f2f2; background-image: none; color: #333333; font-family: Verdana, Arial, Arial; font-style: normal; font-variant: normal; font-weight: 400; font-size: 10pt; line-height: normal } p { margin: 0px; }

Yes thats it Dermot the ID/Nickname Toggle in chat 😀

@johdave, i believe YahNick will still do that, haven’t tried it with latest builds though.

@colin1961uk, they are still adding the temp files but it may not be a bug but just how the installer works, and it still does it, but i never get them in the numbers you say you do.

Hmmm…after extensive beta testing 😀 …I concur…no more Temp files 🙂

Now…should I send them a cabbage for actualy reading a bug report :woot:

Cheers.

Dermot,

I think you’re seeing something different to the tripe that was being written into my Yahoo! Messenger Folder every time I used build 244.

I was getting loads of TMP.tmp type files appearing and on deleting them after each Messenger session more would be written the next time around…a never endind circle of useless .tmp files.

I don’t think that’s you’re experience with build 249 is it??…I’m certainly not seeing it now.

Maybe you’re refering to the setup temp file that gets created on your drive…can’t remember its name for the moment…something like YServer???…but that’s a one off file and it’s not in the main Yahoo! folder…you can just delete it and forget about it…totaly different to the garbage I and some others on here were seeing.

The TMP.tmp stuff was definitely a bug…or very bad coding, whatever you want to call it…I think what you see is just a part of the installation process.

Cheers.

Colin

Hmmm…sounds to me that you’ve done an upgrade from 244 to 249…and those .TMP files are just leftovers from 244’s usage.

If you do a clean install of 249 you won’t see anymore temp files…been using it for nearly two days now and it’s as clean as a whistle.

Give it a try.

Cheers.

Colin
