All the proficients in the house please help your baby girl out.

Each and anytime I want to chat with any of my friends on line or send offline message the moment I click on the person name the cursor would start moving itself and start typing rubbish and then send it to that person I want to chat with after sending it, it would attach a file again and send it to that same person but after the sending of the file it would stop and start its work normally.
The disgusting part is that all the nonsense it type are under my status.

Is it that I didn't get the chatting procedure or what?

Pls help

1. Which instant messaging software are you using that does this? (yahoo messenger, msn messenger, skype, AIM messenger, trillian or other one?

Since you know which IM program is giving you problems

click START > CONTROL PANEL > ADD OR REMOVE PROGRAMS

In the CURRENTLY INSTALLED PROGRAMS
click on the IM software giving problems and click on REMOVE and proceed by say YES/OK to remove the software.

I think you can try restarting your computer. then directly download the software from the makers website

if it is yahoo, yahoo.com
if it is msn, msn.com
if it is skype, skype.com

etc

Dont download through third party site

Thanks for your concern

is a wireless or wired mouse because if it is wireless mouse then that would explain it

you know that box that connect to the computer? the mouse
sends radio waves to the box.that is why the box annot be
next to ANYTHNG like speakers especially the moniter r
else the box recieves the wrong radio waves. try
relocating the box and keeping radio about 5 feet away.

I`m just experimenting something

I try using this with my yahoo messenger didnt experience the problem but give it a go, worth trying

Go to Control Panel
Click on Mouse
In Mouse Properties Window click on Pointer Options tab
In the second group 'Snap To' - make sure that you uncheck this box: Automatically move pointer to the default button in a dialogue box.

If I may ask the YIM that I deleted is is that it has virus or what?

Anyways, the new one is working fine

There could be a variety of reasons for experiencing what you did. You may still want to run antivurs/spyware check on your computer just incase you have trojans, spyware, bots etc on it.

Could be one of the above but cant say unless I have the computer in front of me.

I guess case closed

Good riddance!

Is it strictly recomended? If yes, give me the procedure to go about it.

Thanks
