this is very very weird by Millencolin on 08-18-2004 at 01:51 PM

today i faced something very very weird, my contact list is messed up, i cant c if people are online or offline, nothing, the icon next to their name is gone :S:| i dont know what's wrong, i only have stuff plug installed which works fine, but i also installed messenger discovery... which worked fine a long time for me, i think it's a good addon but i think it has something to do with messenger discovery or something like that
i also have another problem.. sometimes when i say things messages dont get sent to my contacts, yeah i thought they were ignoring me, but it was weird becoz it all happened at the same moment, if i go offline and then online the problem disappears.... and if u dont believe and think they are ignoring me you are wrong becoz i checked their and mine logfiles :S so does anybody know what to do to have my icons back and or to solve my other problem :$
if someone can it would be very gr8 , hope someone will help me
thx

lol they dont work well together :S

either disable stuffplug or un-install md :s



ps :
* Stigmata loves the song pepper

r u sure that is the problem:( coz i really like stuff plug becoz you can add larger display pictures, it works great, but with MD i can talk offline and c when someone prepares a conversation8-)
sigh...
pepper is kewl song btw
but no cigar is the best :p

I think you need more memory, or your graphic card drivers are messed up. technically, they shouldn't interfere tough :S


RE: this is very very weird by Millencolin on 08-18-2004 at 02:02 PM

damn and my computer isnt even three months old, intel pentium 3.2 ghz and my graphics card is a geforce 5... i dunno exactly, maybe you're right my drivers could be messed up , but i didnt change them :s


RE: this is very very weird by Millenium_edition on 08-18-2004 at 02:04 PM

try windows update... you never know.


RE: this is very very weird by Anubis on 08-18-2004 at 02:04 PM

Just try and remove stuffplug (you can always put it back) and then see if the problem is there...


RE: this is very very weird by Millencolin on 08-18-2004 at 02:05 PM

i will try that but i dont trust their updates, i dunno if i can say this here, but microsoft sucks.... but anyway i will try their updates


RE: this is very very weird by Millencolin on 08-18-2004 at 02:13 PM

i removed stuffplug but i also removed discovery, problem is gone, but damn i should have uninstalled one and then looked first maybe i guess...*-)


RE: this is very very weird by user27089 on 08-18-2004 at 02:50 PM

Install Stuffplug ng again, as on that program you can also see when someone opens and closes a conversation with you, there was no need to remove them both.


RE: this is very very weird by Millencolin on 08-18-2004 at 02:58 PM

oh i didnt knew it also shows when they open convo's thx :-) i will have a look at it, thx a lot guys, this forum's gr8 , never knew a forum with so many quick reply's :D and maybe i will use messenger discovery later, when it's bugfree *-)
thx a lot :D

TONY HAWKS 2 :D
u got Pennybridge Pioneers ?


back on topic

have both installed, use the killmd.exe in the messenger d folder to close it, and u choose not to load stuffplug in the preferences
RE: this is very very weird by Millencolin on 08-18-2004 at 04:18 PM

yep i've got pennybridge pioneers, i even got the very rare songs of millencolin :) but back to topic indeed, i dont need messenger discovery anymore, okay maybe now i cant talk offline and use other stuff, but i think there are still a lot of bugs in MD and last but not least, i had to disable some trojan alerts on my firewall becoz it would not work otherways, but thx anyway, stuffplug works great enough for me:)

I believe similar issues have been reported before, e.g. at http://shoutbox.menthix.net/showthread.php?tid=29841.

I think you answered your own question basically. Sign out and in and the problem disappears. So far, I have not seen a cause or definitive solution for this, and I've seen it be reported before :)
RE: this is very very weird by Millencolin on 08-18-2004 at 09:07 PM

ow wait i have a thingy to, screenshot, i sent it to a friend to show her, but i first will scratch names :) and btw that did not solve the problem mate :) something else did
if i saw the icons were gone , i signed out and in, stil the same, but i think u got me wrong
i got two problems
icons disappeared
and sometimes my messages could not be sent( i didnt get message from msn that my messages werent sent, no but i checked logfiles of my friends and logfiles of mine) so that was another problem, sorry i think i got u confused,
i think that problem had to do with messenger discovery (the problem of the unsent messages i mean) becoz it connects through a proxy or something like that, i dunno maybe... how the ** should i know anyway :P i'm a newbie) but anyway as u can c above , the problem was solved after i uninstalled messenger discovery, but even so... my problem's solved and thx anyway so end discussion :D

RE: this is very very weird by Millencolin on 08-18-2004 at 09:18 PM

it must be some problem with your graphics driver or memory. :S is messenger the only app that has this problem? how long has it been running at thatm oment?


RE: this is very very weird by Millencolin on 08-18-2004 at 09:29 PM

normally i dont shut down my computer even at night, and if my computer is on, then my msn is on, but euhm last night i shut it down becoz i wanted to have a good night of rest :p
but no, no probems act strange, maybe a game that acted strange but that's a few months ago and it had something to do with my colors yeah, but really i dunno, problem is solved now i think, if it comes back i will let ya know :) thx a lot for your support everybody, i like this forum :) but stil... i think it had something to do with messenger discovery, not that i dont like the addon, but i'm really stuburn :$ but i think it has a lot of bugs stil, never had problems with plus ;)
