Yahoo! Messenger CommentaryCPU hog - Version: 3.0b3.98855, 4/11/2008 10:36AM PST

Regularly chews up to 80-90% of my CPU time; seen in Activity Monitor. The fans in my laptop spin loudly. Quitting YM restores system load level and the fans switch off. I'm just running it in the background - no video, no audio, not even any chat running - just signed in and doing nothing.

Yahoo! Messenger CommentarySound output - Version: 3.0b3.98855, 4/2/2008 04:56AM PST

Appreciate the voice feature in the new beta, have one problem. when using my headset, can't get it to send the output to my headset. The preference in Yahoo messenger would go back to my computer speakers even when i make the adjustment, and i have the computer main set up to send the output to the headset.
Not very convenient for privacy.
not sure if anyone has experience this with the new beta.
using a G3 iBook, and can't do video with skype.

Yahoo! Messenger Troubleshooting ReportCan't see incoming messages - Version: 3.0b3.98855, 3/31/2008 10:20PM PST

OrCrush
THis happened the day before the upgrade was pushed to me, and there is a possibility it has something to do with the Safari 3.1 update.

I cannot see any incoming chat messages with this version of YIM. If I log out and back in, I get all messages as offlines, but nothing during the live connection.

Rolling back to version 2.5.3 works, but of course its the olllld version.

ANy suggestions?
