JOhnson Posted August 28, 2009 Report Share Posted August 28, 2009 I was in sparkpea last night and was asked for some help via my whispers but for some reason I couldnt access the whispers so I looked at options at the top of the page and everything was blank so I set default which ticked all the boxes and closed the options .... same thing happened again when I looked in options everything was "blank" so I asked at the helpdesk and was told to clear temps / cookies ect which I did to no avail so I decided to delete the MSN Chat Control 4.5 and reinstall MSN Chat Control 4.5 which prompted me to download the Active X ... I try again but it still was the same ... my O/S is vista so what I did was to go on to my XP Pro machine and delete the MSN Chat Control 4.5 and the reinstall it which I did but when I came to look in options it prompted me to run another Active X which isnt happening on the Vista machine .... wondering if anyone can throw some light on this for my and any advice to help me overcome this problem ..... as always nais tuke = thank you for any replies or help Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fanfare Posted August 30, 2009 Report Share Posted August 30, 2009 Why can't some people let msn ocx die in peace already? If Buzzen can do it, so can others. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
