Well, we knew something was in the works for the last couple of months but this surpasses any expectations I had. It seems Yahoo has really listened to its users this time and is definitely trying to make a run against MSN now. I guess we should get ready for this forum to get busy with a new flood of questions now 😀 Hopefully this release by Yahoo will go smoother than MSN’s release of 6.2 but in the regards of supprot, Yahoo still has a lot to prove yet. We shall see.

I am not sure if I am thinking of the same thing as you, but I have a program called The Replicator that is capable of logging large files. I believe this is what you are referring to. As for programs to do what you are wanting to do in Yahoo chat, I would recommend that you use a 3rd party chat client called Yahelite. It enables you to use macros as well as save chat room sessions as text files. Here is the link http://yahelite.org/deep/files/yahelite/ You will want the file called yahelitefull.exe or zip Good luck!

( oh, and to save you some time trying to find it, the command you want to use is the /save [filename] command)

There are several different ways to add music files into windows media player. I am sorry to say that I have never purchased music through iTunes so I am not certain which method will work exactly, but there is a way to do it. Open windows media player/ click on help/help topics and then click on the index tab. Scroll down to “adding files” and then select “to media library.” In the window on the right, there will now be a list of several different techniques for adding files to your list. I hope this info helps.

This is a type of aplore worm that has become a common problem in Yahoo and MSN chat. My first suggestion would be to use one of these online scanners and set them to auto-clean (if possible, it will remove it for you…otherwise instructions should follow on how to manually remove it). http://www.ravantivirus.com/scan/indexie.php

Another thing you need to consider upon removing this worm is to get a “good” anti-virus program, a good firewall, a spyware/adware removal program, and learn more about internet security.

AVG is one of the best a/v’s on the net. Go here to dl a free version http://www.grisoft.com/us/us_dwnl_free.php

Zone labs offers a free version of the #1 firewall program, zone alarm, here http://www.zonelabs.com/store/content/company/products/znalm/freeDownload.jsp

There are many spyware removal programs out there. Most people I know use a combination of either spysweeper (by webroot) or spybot along with adaware 6.0. To get adaware 6 go to http://download.com.com/3000-2144-10045910.html?part=69274&subj=dlpage&tag=button and if you decide you would like to get spysweeper for free then send me a private e-mail ( This is my own personal so I can’t paste the link on the forum)
and finally, to learn more about safely using the internet and maintaining security I suggest you start at http://security.yahoo.com/ (For a Yahoo page, it has a lot of really good info there)

I agree that ymlite is a good program to help shield booters. But there are several others you may want to take a look at as well. Freddy has a list of them at http://www.helpbytes.co.uk/clients.php
and has even listed some brief info about each for your convenience. I cannot speak for all of them, but I can say that I have never been booted while using the YCHT protocol on Yahelite and haven’t ever heard of anybody else being booted while on it either. Of course, as a third party chat client, it does take a little bit of effort to learn if you want to use all the added features in it. The Yahelite address is http://yahelite.org/deep/files/yahelite/ Once there, you want to get the file named “Yahelitefull.exe or zip”

As far as the YPager error that you are getting, there are several different types of YPager errors, such as YPager has caused an invalid page fault in module…. To locate the exact nature of the problem we would need more information from you. In my experience YPagers are not normally associated specifically to voice chat, which could mean that you might not meet all the system requirements for voice, such as the version of browser, etc. You can check these here http://help.yahoo.com/help/us/mesg/voice/voice-01.html
You may just want to simply do a custom uninstall of Messenger and re-install it to fix the problem. For instructions on how to do this see http://www.doc-rocks-dungeon.com/chathelp7.htm

Now, to address the last part of your question about booting…There are several different ways that booters work. PM bombers are mostly a thing of the past and are easy to stop – if you were being flooded with pm’s you would know it. Other booters are not always as noticeable and most often result in a sudden log off of messenger without warning. However, Yahoo users often just simply get disconnected from Messenger without being booted, sometimes from server issues or a problem that occurred somewhere along your internet connection. And, if you are receiving an error message at the time you lose connection then its not a user booting you, but more directly a problem with your program or your PC. To troubleshoot Messenger problems and errors you could visit http://help.yahoo.com/help/us/mesg/twin/index.html or http://help.yahoo.com/help/us/mesg/

Jordan was my vote for the best ever, but as far as favorites I also loved to watch Sir Charles Barkley and The Admiral David Robinson.

Well, not many people are aware of the toll free numbers that yahoo has. For some reason Yahoo doesn’t like to list them but here it is

to contact yahoo in the US dial 1-800-699-2466

Aside from greats like led zeppelin or AC/DC, I like just about anything that rocks. Metallica, Drowning Pool, Godsmack, Disturbed, Rob Zombie, Marilyn Manson…you get the idea.:cool:
