RE: lost log!
I'm glad to see I'm not the only one with this problem.
I opened an encrypted log (correct password and everything) in the chat log viewer today. Then sent an offline message to that person, so pressed F5, hoping it would refresh it; didn't work. So I clicked on the same month again; it said that access was denied. I thought that strange, since once I've typed in the password, I can click on any file for any other contact that has that same password and it will automatically decrypt (unless I had since exited the log viewer, of course).
Anyway, am slightly drifting from the point now. So I clicked on a different month for that contact, waited for that to finish decrypting, then clicked back on June 2007 for that contact. It then said something like 'the file cannot be found' (apologies, can't remember exactly what it said).
I've restarted the computer, searched 3 times and restored my computer to yesterday, all to no avail.
I opened up a conversation window with the said contact, then went to Plus! > Open Chat Log...., entered in the correct password, and it just created a new June 2007 file....it's just a completely blank file entitled with 'Messenger Plus! Chat Log', and I know damn well it was fairly full before. It too was quite important.
There is obviously some sort of bug or whatever in this, I no longer have WLM save the logs for me (haven't since February) and opted for Messenger Plus! Live to save them, as the encryption helped with my privacy problems. I hope it can be brought to attention soon.
Soraya.
