So what you are saying is that you have completely uninstalled Yahoo Messenger – re booted – and then reinstalled it (clean). It still lets you into one of your accounts but not the other account – is that right???
You may have a corruption in your Yahoo application files. To sort this uninstal your Yahoo messenger from your PC (Add/Remove programmes in Control Panel). Re start your PC to fully complete the uninstal process.
Then download a new file from the web and save it to your hard disk. When all is satisfactorily saved click on the downloaded file to instal it.
I seem to remember having this issue myself some time ago.
My fix was to visit the manufacturer’s site and download an up to date driver, or at least one that is compatable with XP.
Lots of devices that work with Win 9X won’t work with WinXP – or at least their functionality is impaired.
Blimey – the one on the right looks just like my first Mother-in Law………… on a good day !!!

We’re pretty much mates PB, I think you know that … when I attack the people that run this place I think (and hope) you know I don’t include you, in fact I’m sure of that. I don’t think you deserved the bad press today, but the person above you does. You’re guilty of being interactive with users here… something the rest are not. So you are the point of call for peoples outcries… thats a fact of life. If you’re going to be interactive, you have to live with that. Sorry mate, thats life.
Its OK Geoff, and thank you for your kind words. Yes I guess you are right – I tend to be the public (or is that pubic???) face of JustChat so I suppose that it is only reasonable that I am the one they have a go at. Occasionally – just occasionally – it is a bit much to swallow in silence. Today was not a good day was it?

Its not a problem hun really. It was my pleasure to help you. xxxxx
Yeah Tommy – it sometimes seems that way doesn’t it? I’ve been sitting here for the last couple of hours thinking about things and it strikes me that we really don’t know too much about each other do we? I have been slagged off publicly and apparently stuff posted about me on another message board as well. But I have feelings – its just that i express them in a different way.
Problem is that I just can’t bring myself to express public grief for somebody that I don’t know. It feels dreadful to say that I don’t feel anything – but that is the truth. And yet when I did the Eulogy for another close friend and Brother (he was the Organist at my Lodge) it was all I could do not to cry. He was so brave. He had stomach cancer and knew he was dying but didn’t tell anybody because he didn’t want to upset them. He was my neighbour as well as my friend and Brother and yet not once did he ever even hint that he was dying. How brave and selfless can you get?
My next door but one neighbour’s wife died on Christmas Day – they were married for 45 years. He has to carry on with his life all alone now and I just feel terible for him. But he doesn’t force his loss on you, he just gets on with it and always has a smile on his face for his friends and neighbours. I think that THAT is brave as well.
I guess that the problem is that I am just not cut out for all these public displays of grief and loss – I was brought up to believe that grief should be private not public.
So as this is a ”what pi ssed you off today thread” – I am very sad and hurt that people should say what they have about me in a deeply personal and wounding way. Still that’s the way life is sometimes.
Thank you soulie I appreciate your wishes. I said my goodbyes to him on Tuesday in the hospice so I guess that it won’t be long now. My other good friend and Brother was recently diagnosed with cancer of the oesophagus (spelling???) and he is going down really fast. You know what deeply offended and hurt me today is that none of the users who got into the personal criticism ever gave a thought that maybe I had enough grief of my own to worry about. I find it really difficult to express condolences anyway, particularly having just had to say goodbye face to face. Doing it on an internet message board for a stranger to me, was frankly more than I wanted to do. But there ya go huh?
Being very personally criticised for not posting a condolence message on here for someone that I hardly knew, when two really close personal friends of mine are currently dying from cancer.
Gary “the kiddie fiddler” Glitter – and I suspect loads of others as well. They don’t realise that these files are only overwritten over a period of time, depending on how much the computer is used. They can be recovered and reassembled using proprietary software for weeks and weeks after they have been apparently deleted.
You can permanently erase files by using a deletion programmes that overwrite ‘free’ disc space with a load of zeros – a so called military wipe – but this is an extreme measure and is totally unnecessary for ‘normal’ users.
