RE: What's Your Most Used Feature? Chat Logs, coloured names, tabbed chats. For a while, I had contacts on desktop, but not lately. | CanadianOriginal | WLM Plus! General | 09-02-2009 at 05:05 AM |
RE: Minimise to tray on Win7 (without Vista compatibility mode) I've had no issues while running WLM in compatibility mode. I guess I'm one of the lucky ones. | CanadianOriginal | WLM Plus! General | 08-29-2009 at 02:23 AM |
RE: Windows 7 with Ultramon I was also an adamant UltraMon user until my switch to Windows 7. I discovered DisplayFusion, and love it. It's not quite as feature rich as UltraMon, but it works nicely, provides a matching taskbar on alternate monitors, and it's portable.

RE: File Backup Software - Win7 I've got my old versoin working so far. Apparently, there's issues with the burning component, so there's no backin gup to CD or DVD, but I don't use it for that. I'll have to give it a few test runs and make sure it works. They are offering no ... | CanadianOriginal | Tech Talk | 07-16-2009 at 02:44 AM |
RE: Fences on Windows 7 I'm doing some maintenance on my system, but as soon as that's done, I'll give it a try and let you know. EDIT: I just installed the program, I'm not exhibiting any of the problems you've had so far. I'll keep it running and see. | CanadianOriginal | Tech Talk | 07-15-2009 at 10:57 PM |
File Backup Software - Win7 I recently had a system crash and had to re-image my computer. All I had available was Windows 7 RC1 (7100). I've managed to find compatible software for pretty much everything, except file backups. I used to use 2BrightSparks SyncBack, but it's no... | CanadianOriginal | Tech Talk | 07-15-2009 at 10:56 PM |
Blocked URLs Are there workarounds to sending URLs MS doesn't allow through Windows Live Messenger? I'm currently omitting the http:// part so it's sent as plain text, but I'd prefer something clickable. All subdomains offered by no-ip.org's free service see... | CanadianOriginal | Skype & Live Messenger | 06-17-2009 at 03:44 AM |
RE: Problems in WLM 9 I am having problems with custom emoticons. When adding them, any graphics in PNG format come out extremely small when I use the icons in conversations. Other formats seem fine. Converting the images helps, but some of them are transparency dependent... | CanadianOriginal | Skype & Live Messenger | 02-03-2009 at 04:46 AM |

RE: External storage I need the RJ45 to use the drive as NAS (Network Attached Storage), and I need the [b]USB[/b] port to hook it up to an FTA satellite receiver I have to use its PVR function. That way, I can record my shows, and stream them or burn them from any PC o... | CanadianOriginal | Tech Talk | 11-04-2008 at 02:55 AM |
External storage I'm looking for an external hard drive enclosure that has RJ45 and USB connectivity that can be used [color=red]simultaneously[/color]. I have one from Eagle that has both ports, but I can only use one at a time. I would prefer one that supports bot... | CanadianOriginal | Tech Talk | 11-04-2008 at 02:30 AM |
RE: Vista Disk Management. I used to be a Partition Magic junkie, before Symantec bought them out. Since then, I like Paragon. Never really used Acronis stuff, but I plan to look into it. GParted also works quite well, and it's free. | CanadianOriginal | Tech Talk | 11-04-2008 at 02:26 AM |
Yahoo COntacts on Desktop I did several searches trying to find this, but nothing came up. Maybe I'm dense? Anyhoo... I have a few Yahoo contacts on m list, but I can't seem to add them to the desktop (the menu option is grayed out). With one of them, I [i]do[/i] get the op... | CanadianOriginal | WLM Plus! Help | 11-02-2008 at 05:06 PM |
General Suggestion I'm not sure how difficult this is to implement, but I know it's possible. Many skins have custom buddy icons in the contact list, but most of them don't extend those icons to conversation windows or desktop contacts. I don't know about others, b... | CanadianOriginal | Skinning | 07-15-2008 at 04:59 AM |
Toast placement IS there any way to customize the location of WLM tost popups? I would like to get all my toasts to go to my second monitor by default (including Plus ones, but one step at a time). Any insight would be welcome. | CanadianOriginal | Skype & Live Messenger | 06-23-2008 at 07:14 PM |
RE: [Idea] Multiple windows with tabs Maybe I'm off on a tangent here, but if we're talking about tab (re)organization, what about the ability to change the tab order? | CanadianOriginal | WLM Plus! General | 04-20-2008 at 02:23 AM |
RE: show emote shortcuts I honestly can't remember if it was Plus! that had this feature, or if I'm simply remembering a time before Messenger displayed the emoticons in the text box. Either way, I think the suggestion is valid | CanadianOriginal | WLM Plus! General | 04-12-2008 at 06:23 AM |
RE: show emote shortcuts I agree. This is something I thoroughly miss. Especially when I use shortcuts for custom emoticons that include another emoticon's shortcut, and I can't type it because it auto changes before I'm done typing it (I'm not sure I explained that prop... | CanadianOriginal | WLM Plus!

RE: Release [Zero-G Version 2.0.1] This is sort of an alternate request to something I mentioned [url=http://shoutbox.menthix.net/showthread.php?ti d=82888]here[/url].

[Suggestion] Contact Information window - status display This is more of a nitpick than a suggestion, but I thought I'd bring it up. When using the "Contact Information" right-click menu item, I think it would be useful if the contact's status would be displayed. You can see the last status change in t... | CanadianOriginal | WLM Plus! General | 04-02-2008 at 07:03 AM |
RE: Release [Zero-G Version 2.0.1] I use Plus! custom notifications to popup whenever a contact goes offline. When using the default Messenger look with no skin, the popup reads "<user> signed out". When I use the Zero-G skin, the contact's user name is readable, but the added info... | CanadianOriginal | Skinning | 03-26-2008 at 07:45 PM |
[Help] Plus! 4.60 Notifications and Skins Ever since I upgraded to Plus 4.60, Plus notifications (like contacts going offline, POP3 mail) do not match the skin. I have tried with several skins released since, to no avail. Is this a limitation of the changes in Plus! skinning, or simply that ... | CanadianOriginal | Skinning | 03-26-2008 at 05:53 PM |
Coloured names and popups Hello, It's been ages since I've been activ eon here, but hopefully I'll be forgiven and get an answer to my problem ;) I'm using WLM 8.5 and Plus 4.5. I have a few contacts with coloured nicknames. When the contacts sign on, the WLM popup has th... | CanadianOriginal | WLM Plus! Bug Reports | 02-27-2008 at 10:48 PM |
Short WAV files cut off I've had this problem for some time now, and it's getting impossible to manage. Whenever I play a short WAV file (say a few seconds), it always cuts off before the end, and I don't hear most of it. This happens regardless of the media player I use... | CanadianOriginal | Tech Talk | 11-17-2006 at 05:23 AM |
RE: [UPDATE] Mute 1.3 I'm glad to say that so far, I'm not having any of the difficulties I had in the past. One thing I'd like to see is muting notifications with sounds, although I'm sure that's not easy. I also like the suggestion of automatically muting with cert... | CanadianOriginal | Scripting | 11-13-2006 at 09:05 AM |
