When using Yahoo IM, I find that the faces start to disappear and red Xs appear in the box on the messenger?

I then have to close yahoo and restart my computer then it works for a while then sometimes the letters stop they go invisible...what is wrong here?

This isn't an answer, but I have had the same problem. It works for a while, and then after some use the emoticons fail to show up, and instead a box with a red X, or sometimes nothing at all. I've also noticed in on photo sharing where initially it works, then after a while it stops. I've been advised to untinstall and then reinstall. This has posed a problem too. Refer to my question, and you'll see the same thing. You may learn more there.

I can't see the instant messages.





Hmm, well鈥?you may have scripting disabled in your Internet Explorer.





To enable scripting:


Click the "Tools" menu on your Internet Explorer toolbar and select "Internet Options."





Click the "Security" tab.





Click the Internet (globe) icon and click the "Custom Level" button.





Scroll down to "Scripting."





Enable the following:





* Active scripting


* Allow paste operations via script


* Scripting of Java applets are all enabled





Click the OK button at the bottom of the window.





Note: Restart Yahoo! Messenger and you should start seeing text in your IM windows again.

Why do I receive an error when running Yahoo! Messenger?


Best guess? You might have a corrupt file in your Yahoo! Messenger directory. To fix the problem, you must manually delete the Messenger directory on your C: drive (default), then reinstall the Yahoo! Messenger application.





To delete the directory:





Close the Yahoo! Messenger application if you currently have it running. Make sure all instances of Internet Explorer are closed.


Go to your desktop and double-click "My Computer."


Click the "C:" drive.


Go to:


C:\Program Files\Yahoo!


Highlight the Yahoo! Messenger folder and press the Delete key on your keyboard. (All archives will be deleted if they are not copied. Please see below.)


To install:





Close all running applications except for your Internet browser.


Visit the Yahoo! Messenger home page.


Click the "Download Now" button.


To copy your complete Message Archive:





Close Yahoo! Messenger (if it is currently running).


Go to your Desktop and double-click "My Computer."


Select the "C:" drive.


Go to:


C:\Program Files\Yahoo!\Messenger\Profiles.


Your "Profiles" folder contains your complete Message Archive. Copy it to the same location on another computer if you wish to view it elsewhere.


Note: If you copy this folder to another computer, your complete Message Archive will be copied, overriding the Message Archive on the computer to which you are copying.

How do i get rid of incomplete downloads im tring to downlload yahoo messenger for vista ?

im having trouble downloading yahoo messenger for vista it say that its stoped because of incomplete down load and says to restart and try again when i do its the same thing

How do i get rid of incomplete downloads im tring to downlload yahoo messenger for vista ?
Go get CCleaner here %26gt;%26gt; http://www.download.com/CCleaner/3000-21...





it is an excellent Tool to have. It removes unused files from your system - allowing Windows to run faster and freeing up valuable hard disk space. It cleans: Internet Explorer (Temporary files, URL history, cookies, Auto Complete form history, index.dat); Firefox (Temporary files, URL history, cookies, download history)





I always run mine every night when I am ready to shut down my PC , that way it is nice and clean for me the next day.





It will get rid of the Temp files where your incomplete download is at so you can get it downloaded correctly this time.





If you are thinking of using the Vista messenger as your main messenger I would recommend against it, it is missing a lot of features that the others have. Mainly web cam, archive history and chat rooms. If you are just wanting to check it out then go ahead but 8.1 is way better!
Reply:Use your Control panel and click ADD and remove Programs... look for the program you wish to uninstall... do that.. then go back and reinstall from a new standpoint.

How secure is the messenger and email? I was wondering if someone could get into my messenger or email by the ?

administrator or any other way without my password. I have heard the people can get in if you are on a shared computer is this true? thank you

How secure is the messenger and email? I was wondering if someone could get into my messenger or email by the ?
yeah they can. just sign off every time and make sure there not using parental Controls.
Reply:If you have a shared computer, you can go into Control Panel, User Accounts, and under your account check off to make your files private. That would offer security against people without moderate to extensive knowledge of computers. If they are on your user account then yes they can easily get access to everything. By default however, administrator is disabled in Windows XP Home, and other Home editions of windows. XP Professional however, if no admin password was defined at install, easy.





I once had a computer crash and needed to replace some files on the drive to reboot it. I stuck it on a work computer, simply went into properties and took ownership of the files...took me about 5 minutes to get into everything, never leave passwords or secure info on your computer unless it's in an encrypted section.
Reply:Yes this is true. If you leave your password and messenger up on your computer then other people will be able to get into your e-mail. I would suggest deleting your internet history before you get off so this does not happen. Also you can remove your password from your messenger when you get on it and type every in everytime...That why I use my own computer...
