Lol, i was talking to someone and my computer started to beep and beep and beep for 15 seconds or something like that and I saw THIS in the dos window:
This looks like it have something to do with the Display Picture.. It's the second time today I have this problem and i noticed it's always when loading the DP.
Can this be fixed? _________________ Sypher

no... well it's this situation..
I and the bot are 'talking' and i add some guy who never seen the bot before... I see it's loading this guy's DP and at the same time the bot receives this 'garbage'..
So it can't be a webcam or files sending... _________________ Sypher

I get it too, So I added a small if statement near the top of my message sub with some of the odd characters in it to end the sub (return)..
I reckon it's caused by people sending the bot image files.. because they have thumbnails and so sent binary data or something. _________________ http://www.polylogical.co.uk

There are 255 possible characters, include the regular alphabet, number and symbols. Some of those characters are not displayable in the dos screen, others cause the computer to do certian things. Some of them cause it to beep. When binary data is sent over MSN our MSN.pm doesn't know how to handle it so it treats i like characters. That means you get all sorts of garbled text printed out. You could turn off debuging so it doesn't print out. From that out put it looks like you are using the wrong version of MSN.pm. If you could show us what it prints right after you start it we can know what version you are running.
So realy its not soo much a bug as an inconvience, if you confrim that its with a current version of MSN then i will look into it and see what can be done to change this in the future. _________________ Eric256

yeah, thats because the msn server sends you the data, our msn.pm doesnt reply to the request so it should just say it, might reply with a message, but it shouldnt
