Yahoo just changed servers so if your using an older version of yahelite go back to thier web site and update problem should be fixed if not try another 3rd party chat client till yahelite is properly fixed.BTW . Quick chat also Y!mlite both are 3rd party chats clients and have the room buster feature inculded in them .
Yahoo did do some cleaning, patching and general work if you noticed all third party chat programs will have to be updated and some of the booters will be halted for a short time as Yahoo change the servers for logins .So if you Use a 3rd party chat you will have to update for it to log you on to yahoo .
Sarah ,Yahoo changed the login servers for messanger so if you wanna keep using JAM got to his web site and update I do think that it is Updated , all the 3rd party chat programs have been patched and a simple update should resovle your login. I know Y!mlite,and Quick chat are both fixed with the new login .The link should provide you with where to find an updated version or if you like look at some of the other chat programs there , Dont sweat the small stuff .
http://www.chat-help.co.uk/you can replace messanger sounds with any wav file , heres how find you wave files you would like to have save them to a sound folder ( create one ). when you open messanger sounds click the pulldown menu and change the folder to the sound files folder you created or save the new sounds to the media folder in yahoo mess. on my messanger when a freind comes on line its says Thanx for noticing me (eoree) Im’s are (foghorn leghorn ) looky here a freind goes off line it flushes .i have about 9 or 10 wavs i use for custom sounds if you would want them drop me an email.But any wav file will work with messanger sounds .
Got the same message today sounds like chats gonna be quiet tonight , Wonder what they are going to fix ?If anything .
There is a program that will show you all the alises on an account, but before anyone gets scared of this the username and correct password are a MUST.If they dont have the password the program is useless.As for Tracking an IP thats almost impossible dail up users get a new IP at every connection Dsl and cable users change Ip at diffrent intervals . to stay completely safe stay off line , to be reasonably safe keep your antivirus updated . Dont sweat the small stuff .
You can download a free trial of the cleaner from http://www.moosoft.com its free for thirty days .Your antivirus and firewall are the best defence you can have ,Some things not to do is open attchments in emails , also dont accept file transfers ,have it emailed to YahooMail and scan it for nasties , always scan what you download right click and scan it again . All those problems you listed couldnt have just droped off you pc did you read what spybot deleted i would bet thats what stopped them . there is an old program called the silencer/it stops programs from calling home , it think you can still find it at http://www.yahoo-help.com/ not sure i have a copy of it if you cant find a download for it . email me @yahoo.com . and ill send it out to you, hope this helps

Here’s something that might help your ME windows to run smoother Windows ME is a resource hog as well as Windows 98 they hold parts of your ram even after its not in use goto http://www.webattack.com/get/fastdefrag.shtml and download fastdefrag it should fix your problem also it will keep you pc running at optimal speed .
There are other ways to block your system from attacks like the use of a router or a hard firewall before your computer theses are extreme measures for the normal internet users as they are not cheap . if you use a proxy for IE and also for messanger run the proxy thru it your Ip wount be visable. but most hackers and scriptkiddes scan large numbers of Ip addresses if they find a vunerable system it mostly by chance .
try going to http://scan.sygate.com/trojanscan.html scan the computer sounds like they have a virus like the sobig or dcom. Also it wouldnt be a bad idea to goto http://grc.com/dcom/ download and install the dcombobulator It should help . also download spybot and spyguard they will help keep spyware down .
