Sometimes it isn’t there side. I used to get this a few times. In Outlook Express, go to Tools > Accounts. Click on your account, and hit Properties.* Click on the Servers tab, and check to make sure that you Incoming and Outgoing mail servers match with your provider’s. If you don’t know them, they are usually listed in the Help section on their site. If that isn’t the case, follow the directions above up until the star, then click on the Advanced tab. Sometimes the Incoming/Outgoing ports are different. Those should also be listed on your Provider’s website. If those don’t work, then most likely there is a problem with your provider.
SpikeMemberIf you have no complete idea how to make an HTML document, I can help you there. If you would like me to do it for you, or if you would rather I teach you some basics, either or is fine. If you want to see the power of HTML, check out my site at http://webroadmap.i8.com. It was created entirely out of HTML code, and just a hint of JavaScript. And as far as the FTP is, go to http://freeware.aceftp.com/ and download AceFTP 3. It is one of the best FTP’s out there.
SpikeMemberWell, if this makes any difference, I have SBC Yahoo! DSL, and I’ve sent a 150MB file at about 45kbps. AOL and MSN don’t compare to Yahoo in my book, but The others certainly do well in other areas and features.
SpikeMemberYeah, that’s it. The one that you can get weather and sports and stock quotes and everything on it. Man with all that stuff on it does it even tell time? :p
SpikeMemberIF YOU HAVE WINDOWS ME, GET RID OF IT. It is the most unstable system of them all. I reccomend upgrading for just $100 to Windows XP Home Edition. Or try a different OS. Go download Linux (yes, it’s legal, the source code is public.) JUST DONT STICK WITH WINDOWS ME. take it from an experienced user, first-hand. I used it, it was horrible.
SpikeMemberThis is kind of hard to explain just by typing it out on a forum for all to see, so drop me an IM – I use Trillian, anyone is fine – and I’ll help you fix it, step-by-step.
SpikeMemberAs per my post in the Yahoo! section, yes you will experience problems with MSN for file transfer. I currently own all four messengers: AOL, ICQ, MSN, and Yahoo, and only Yahoo seems to work well. If you have any thoughts on this go to the Yahoo! section and post a reply there.
SpikeMemberI. Very true, I don’t think there is a messenger program that let you send im’s cross-messenger.
II. I believe that is true, although I have never used that feature becuase noone emails me on my Hotmail account anyway.
III. No, unfortunately, this is very true. So if you are going to use Trillian, stick with it, don’t switch back and forth.
IV. Yes, this is also true, but isn’t that a good thing? I have found it a nuisance from day 1 of using yahoo.
Sorry if I am wrong on any of these, these are from past experiences or educated guesses.
SpikeMemberYes, I would agree, Doodles is one of my favorites among others. It seems the most well-designed and most versatile.
SpikeMemberYeah, I really think that’s annoying how all the stupid spammers flood the rooms every three seconds and you can’t even get a conversation going with someone. If the spamming stopped and like, let everyone know about it, too, then it would definately become more popular.
SpikeMemberwow now that I think about it, I use instant messengers and this forum everyday after school. it’s also become routine for me. almost scary if you think about it for a sec.
SpikeMemberInstructions for installing Trillian Skins:
1. Download the .zip file.
2. Open it in WinZip.
3. Click the Extract… button.
4. To the left, MAKE SURE that the All Files option button AND the Use Folder Names check box are clicked.
5. To the right, find your Skins folder inside your Trillian folder. (DEFAULT:: C:Program FilesTrillianskins)

7. Close WinZip and go into Trillian.
8. Go to Preferences…Skins…Load Skin Chooser.
9. Pick your skin.
10. Close Trillian (from the System Tray, also) and restart it.
11. Enjoy your new skin!SpikeMemberDoesn’t the newest release of Ostego have tabbed IM windows?
ps I prefer DeadAIM, if you still have it from back when it was free:D.
SpikeMemberYeah, I think that it’s improved my typing skills a WHOLE lot, and its helped me a lot. I also realize how much faster I type, maybe its AOL, maybe its the HTML code, I dunno. And I wasn’t even a good typer before. I used to be at 15 wpm, I think…but since I’ve used AOL so much I took a free typing test and surprisingly, I was at 35WPM! 😎 And I don’t use any of that home row crap, I still hunt and peck (with all 10 fingers, not 2 like most people). I think I’m one of the few people who can hunt and peck 35wpm:D, and if you can, let me know, I congratulate you it’s tough.
