The Computer Guru's Handy Hints
Yahoo!
If you have problems with someone in a Chat Room, go to the
Yahoo!
Chat Abuse Report form.
We don't know what kind of response you will get, and would appreciate it if
anyone reporting abuse would also email us here. Thanks.
Are you being booted from Yahoo! Chat a lot?
Sometimes rebooting your computer helps.
ICQ
ICQ will never send you a message
demanding that you forward it to everyone on your contact list under
penalty of being removed from ICQ, or being billed.
Please do not forward such a message.
It is a hoax.
Is your ICQ stuck to the side of your screen and you can't
resize it?
This is a little known feature called docking.
If you drag ICQ away from the edge of the screen, it will revert to its'
original size and allow you to resize it as well.
Virus and Other Hoaxes
Have you ever received an email warning you that you should never
read something with the subject of "Good Times" because if you read it,
it will delete everything on your hard drive?
How about the email promising a free trip to DisneyWorld if you forward
it to enough people?
These are hoaxes.
If you receive a suspicious message like one of these, check out these
web sites, which are maintained by security experts, and will tell you
if the email you have is real or a hoax:
US Department of Energy,
Data Fellows Ltd.,
Network Associates Inc.,
Symantec Corp..
