Gaim problem, againnnnnnnnn
« on: January 12, 2006, 08:20:26 am »
Why does Gaim feel it necessary to boot me off every twenty-four hours I'm online? It boots me off MSN & Yahoo! messenger..  AIM just disconnects whenever.

Version?
I'd personally do as Joe suggests

You might be right about that, Joe.

I'd bet that you're currently bloated like a water ballon on a hot summer's day.

That analogy doesn't even make sense.  Why would a water balloon be especially bloated on a hot summer's day? For your sake, I hope there wasn't too much logic testing on your LSAT.

Same, but uh, why does it matter when it automatically reconnects?

There needs to be an option to "silently" reconnect.  I'm not sure that there isn't one, but I sure haven't found it yet.  I'm suggesting that when disconnected, it just reconnects again (if the password is saved).

If you're on Windows, I strongly recommend *NOT* saving your passwords.  By default, other users can view Gaim's encryption files.  On *any* program you install, if it saves your password, it can be retrieved by other users unless you specifically lock/encrypt your files.

Or your PC. If I'm away from my computer for more than 5 minutes (IE: Not touching it), it goes to the screensaver, and then it prompts me for my ultra-secret-ultra-secure-uber-leetspeak password. The only way to get past that, that I know of, is to use a LiveCD linux, which nobody in my house knows how to do, so I think I'm safe. =)

Rebooting your computer, into safe mode?

Ignorance is NOT a tool you should use in security.

Haha, I have my password saved in Gaim. It's mostly due to laziness so I don't have to type my username/password everytime :).

Le fixed.

Are you sure they didn't reset your DSLAM?  That's fixed my issues when they've done that at times.
