jaeron…. i asked my yahoo buddies….. since your issue is diff than wingmans….. and they said…
Quote:quote:some things trillian does tend to set off our spam protectiongreat. ill see what else i can find out….. are you on regular trillian or trillian pro?
i will suggest NOT using an id on trillian that you currently have in a chat room…. i have had no probs so FAR with 3 accounts on trillian and a fourth in chat…. but i am pushing my luck there…..what operating system, firewall, etc…. maybe we can find a common denominator here that might be the issue….. * at one point a certain version of ie installed caused all browser chat to appear BACKWARDS* so you never know what may be the actual cause….
you might also go see if there is any info over on the trillian board https://bigblueball.com/forums/forum.asp?FORUM_ID=33 or the forums on the trillian site…… http://www.ceruleanstudios.com/forums/
perhaps they have some insight…..
if not they will atleast see if they can duplicate the error to fix it…yeah b00ty… kinda.. more windows related….
have been seeing many pleas for help recently about blank instant messages and webcam windows etc…. and one of the issues seems to be just what you said…..Quote:quote:windows updates is generally a good idea (just get them a week or two late… sometimes they break more than they fixwhich makes me think they ‘broke’ something in one of the last security fixes.. or possibly updated something..
i am not certain of anything because i can not duplicate the error….. so i am mostly thinking out loud.. similar symptoms……
but its how i found the triple upside down cam image fix 😉macro.
yep.. clarifying my previous post…..
but if they see it on cam or in chat…. click the link on the chat client…. the one in lower corner of screen, just above the send button . says REPORT abuse…..
it does more than just open the page….. that flags the info on the yahoo server.. going to the page on your own from any other link.. does not…..and needs to be done with in 10 min if i recall correctly…. that will get a review by an actual yahoo person and a warning from customer care if the abuse/violation is true/substantiated.. or even get offenders account closed.
been told that if you use a third party client to access yahoo chat ~ you can open messenger go to the room, and click the link…. and it will flag last 10 minutes of chat….. and attach to your report….
just a tip…lets not start the ytunnel discussion again… personally i dont trust it… note i said PERSONALLY…..
but *shock* i agree….some yahoo add ons may leave you at risk…..from an infected messy dl archived on a site, to an intentional infection of a program, to programmers who add backdoors ……
* same can be said @ ANY plug ins and add ons – aim, msn, icq, etc……. *
trojan and av program only work if they have the dat file…. i have seen files scan clean for months, then a new dat update finds keyloggers or trojans…..
it is one reason i have VERY few downloads on site….. if you can manually do it…. its probably best to do so….. not only do you have a chance to learn and flex some computer skills…. you KNOW what was done…. and hopefully how to undo it……
but.. i guess. since folks will dl…..
free antivirus download http://www.grisoft.com for avg….
free online scans try http://housecall.antivirus.com/ or http://www.bitdefender.com/scan/licence.php or http://www.commandondemand.com http://www.ravantivirus.com disable whatever antivirus you have on comp first so it doesnt slow it down or give false readings…..Quote:quote: Oreo – I was cleaning out some old names from my accounts…what names Oreo? your aliases? or friends/ used to be friends names?
either way….. its POSSIBLE you were flirting with disaster on yahoo….
they have set some strong filters in place to stop spam bots…. and it is catching people who are editing buddy lists…… and a few editing aliases….or heck. could have been the cookie ~ or could have been yahoo….
could have been accessing via phone….
it reminds me of folks who make a new id then cant see it…. a reboot often fixes… or folks who delete an alias yet still see it.. dunno….. am asking around…..good job shear!
my two cents …if you should happen across a webcam on yahoo that is showing inappropriate materials….. click the REPORT ABUSE link…. it SHOULD… repeats SHOULD screen cap and attach to the info yahoo receives from you…
the report abuse links in messenger, chat 2, and on webcams are the only LEGAL / VERIFIABLE info yahoo can use to terminate accounts etc….
just adding some info….
change how a file opens- 3 different ways * in case DarkLord runs into a prob… some ways are easier for some than others….
hold shift, and right click the file, and click open with, and select the tool…like note pad
windows explorer > tools > folder options > file type tabs > find (old way to open), remove file type/ > find (new way to open ), add file type
open windows explorer….then click tools.. folder options…then file types…. scroll to the file type its wanting to play.. and change what that file is opened with
oops. off topic….. but……

Quote:quote:if I try to invite it just hangs in an open blank window.this is often an indication of an active x issue……
have you go to windows updates to assure you have all service packs and critical updates? * maybe way off here. but the blank part makes me think this….
Windows critical updates http://windowsupdate.microsoft.com/ (click product updates) then product updates. let it work…get all critical ones..go back until it shows no more criticals today
another possible thing to check…. you may have scripting disabled…Click the Tools menu on your Internet Explorer toolbar, select Internet Options, and select the Security tab.
Click the Internet (globe) icon and select the Custom Level button.
Scroll down to Scripting and make sure that Active scripting, Allow paste operations via script, and Scripting of Java applets are all enabled.
restart the messenger program. see if that does it……..
again. maybe way off….. but……. the blank part rings a bell…..
good luck!wysiwyg7 ~
i think you are using the default server in your tag…. hence the unknown user info…. check your email for the correct server to use in your tag……..
i did the same thing at first…..daz you do it in CAM settings wehn closed. not via messenger….
use the vidcap.exe file to change the settings……
http://download.yahoo.com/dl/update/vidcap32.exe to get it free from yahoo if you cant find in the cam folder….
sorry.. i *assumed* you would have opened the cam program to test if it wasnt working on yahoo….
open the vidcap program……
then click on options, then video format. change the resolution ( try 160×120, if that try 176 x 144 ) and check RGB ~ if its 24, try 16, if 16 try 24. click okay then close out the vidcap program. restart cam program
see if that does it. you may need to try a few different settings to get the correct one…..in addition to Windaphoners links…..
checked here sun? they have some…… not alot…..
http://www.mybuddyicons.com/08_away_mmessage_asci_art.htm ………ahhhh Windaphoner, thank you.. it is a cool little toy…. i have collected a few recently…. geourl, audio tracker….imood……trying to get osi set up too…. MAYBE…..
*pats Windaphoner on the back….* good job!oh… and there are programs to RESTORE deleted files…. and to access certain files on the computer that retain the surfed links even when history is cleared……
actually……
best to check your employee manual……
the company owns the computers, pays for the accesss….. and you have ZERO right to privacy if the manual or handbook states business purposes only……
they may have a program that sends screen captures of what you view and do to a computer off site…… it may mirror or keylog everything you do….. and clear history maybe worthless……there is ZERO expectation of privacy on your employers computers……
they are the ones held responsible if you mess up….. and who are at risk if you access an infected file or site….. compromising the BUSINESS files….ASK YOUR BOSS NOW!~
and if there is NO policy in place…. offer to help organize the policy….. or you may find ZERO access……….
