Help with eoff!!

[Max]

Ok, this just started a little while ago. Whenever I go on to the eoff website, it does not show any pictures. It just shows a red X. It only does this on this site. mI nedd any suggestions/soulutions for this problem!

[Dr Unne]

You mean the front site, i.e. eyesonff.com? That has to be a problem with your computer, since it loads fine for everyone else. Could be a virus / spyware, God only knows. Do you use Internet Explorer? If so, stop, and use <a href="http://mozilla.org/products/firefox">Firefox</a> and see if that works.

Blarg firefox

Its not IE, ignore him, Firefox is good though :D

It is usually your ISP, if you use Freeserve/Wannadoo change now or forever face the Red X of doom.

[Flying Mullet]

Yeah, all of the images are showing up for me too.

If you'd like Shrunkin Master if you can paste the link to the page(s) that are messed up I can verify that they are working, but I agree with everyone else that it is your computer that is having problems.

Well, I use firefox now and its working perfectly. Thanks unne

[Yamaneko]

Firefox wins again!

[Raistlin]

As usual. Firefox solves all problems.

For some reason, this chain of events cracked me up.

[Baloki]

I still can't fully use firefox due to outlook express so the campain must go on

*scowls at this set back*

What do you mean due to outlook express? Try Mozilla then, I think that has a component that'll replace Outlook nicely - I'm not sure as I only installed the web browser part of it on my machine.

It has about 5000 e-mails on it which won't transfer so I'm stuck with it

What are you doing keeping 5,000 emails?

[Baloki]

What are you doing keeping 5,000 emails?

I recieve about 200 a day. Most of it refering to my site or from people I'm helping with their sites, or just some good written works someone wants me to have a look at. I keep them all so I can look back and refer to any of it, records :D

[crono_logical]

5000? You need to keep that many? :p Oh well, I guess that's why I prefer IMAP to POP3 when I can - the mail stays on the server instead of getting stuck in some horrid format on the local drive.

[Baloki]

I could have set it to stay on the server but then Yahoo would have locked the account xD

[Flying Mullet]

Isn't there anyway you can export the files or copy them to keep them on your local hard drive?

Plus if you're having that many emails come through yoru inbox and you don't expect them to dwindle you might want to get a new email address with a program that allows you better management of your emails and switch over to that new address and clean up outlook express when you have time.

[crono_logical]

Seeing as it's Microsoft, it's probably not easy as they want to lock you into their software :p

[Baloki]

Its easy to back them up, their all saved in this one massive file and I turned compression off so they weren't encrypted in case I needed to recover them or transfer computers :D

Also Yahoo see to have given me a shiny new 100 meg inbox, its soooo shiny, can't get it to download the e-mails into OE quite yet, but I need to change my pop settings and restart :D

[Flying Mullet]

Yeah, I checked my yahoo inbox to day and noticed it went from 6 MB to 100 MB. Very nice. My total mail went from 40 something percent of my total allowed space to 4 percent just like that. :)

[Baloki]

I just hope their not doing what google is doing and just not telling anyone, thats my only concern

[Flying Mullet]

They are telling people. When I first logged in I was redirected to a screen that explained the new services and features. There was also an email in my inbox explaining it all over again.

[Baloki]

Not quite what I meant, I meant like the Google Mail which electronically reads all your e-mail kind of system...

[Flying Mullet]

Ahh, I see. Yeah, I'm not too sure about that.

[Baloki]

Oh well, doesn't matter for now :D

[Dr Unne]

I would rather use IE than use Outlook, so that's saying a lot. Figure out a way to export your mail into a format some non-sucky program could read, would be my advice. It has to be possible, even for Outlook. Even if you have to download some mail client just so it can import the exported mail and then export it again to some other nice format.
