good. but help me pleeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeaaaaaaaase

hub2dee · 02/02/2006 17:03

Sorry, am no longer in the world of Windoze and I don't (hardly ever anyway) MSN.

Reinstall Messenger (or upgrade to latest). May well fix it.

we just had the same problem as dp spilt a glass of wine on the keyboard. If it had been me there would have been bitter recriminations forever more. As it was he gave it a clean and it was still buggered so phoned Dell (it is a works laptop under warranty) and managed to convince them the shift key was knackered. We got a new one and it's all fine now.

Make sure Sticky Keys isn't on (for disabled users) In control Panel/Accessibility) as you may have inadvertnently switched it on. sorry it's not the keyboard but my crap styping now - fractious dd next to me - have to go now !

VeniVidiVickiQV · 02/02/2006 17:10

done that

hub2dee · 02/02/2006 17:13

Life's tough, eh, QV !

LOL

VeniVidiVickiQV · 02/02/2006 17:15

I'll bear that in mind hub, next time you ask for something

VeniVidiVickiQV · 02/02/2006 17:21

okay - someone must know.....

mumatuks · 02/02/2006 17:25

I would help you VQV but considering the mess I just got myself in I doubt I'm much help.

Are you talking about MSN?

VeniVidiVickiQV · 02/02/2006 17:25

VeniVidiVickiQV · 02/02/2006 17:26

(we've all done the crumbs in keyboard at some point or another.... )

VeniVidiVickiQV · 02/02/2006 17:26

TambaTheTemptress · 02/02/2006 17:28

hub2dee · 02/02/2006 19:19

What did you do then, lofty ?

VeniVidiVickiQV · 02/02/2006 20:31

Ah ha! That'd be telling hub

hub2dee · 02/02/2006 20:59

You mean you have no idea, hey.

VeniVidiVickiQV · 02/02/2006 21:23

thats what you'd like to believe, isnt it hub?

I'll keep schtumm. I dont want to threaten your manliness, ok?

hub2dee · 02/02/2006 21:31

You have no clue, do you ?

I bet you just plugged in the keyboard or sommit.

VeniVidiVickiQV · 02/02/2006 21:32

its a laptop, nice try......

VeniVidiVickiQV · 02/02/2006 21:34

Ok, i went to tools, options, messages on the messenger window, and ticked the box that said "show emoticons". It seems to have mysteriously become "unticked" whilst DD was banging my laptop earlier.

So there...... I am a strong, confident woman...... [raspberry emoticon]

lol

hub2dee · 02/02/2006 21:48

Wow, that sounds like pretty hardcore hacking QV. You quite rightly should be proud of your prowess.

Sweet dreams.
