Since this morning it can't connect to Yahoo service. It tries to connect indefinitely. Other (hotmail, gmail) work fine. Did yahoo change anything? The file transfer crashed it always, but the chat worked...

Why it's come to be so silent about #3? :( Still open questions from about one week ago oO I know you have other things to do but I've thought to have left enough time :)

Buggled, I think you have to compare the thread with changes made to the program itself since the release of #3. These thread are more for us, users, to sound off about the thread (even many developers may not read it, as it says on post #1) and so yes work is being done on #4 that we may not hear about in this thread. Also very little has change in version .9 from version .8 as of current (still very early in building of .9) so not much to talk about. That said I don't think there are many open questions in the thread apart from "I get crash" or "why not work" without enough information to go on for actually reporting as a bug.

As for your specific questions
all Tabsrmm Questions (as far as I can tell are answered)
icon Nightwish refers to (for main menu icon) is in Options>icons>main icons>Miranda IM
Typing Notify is a work in progress and he is aware of the sticking "is typing" if you don't like it just turn it off for now (Options>Message sessions>Typing Notify)
Blinking Icon i don't understand the question as when I get a file, miranda doesn't steal focus AFAICT

thanks for your answer.

1) http://img88.imageshack.us/i/zwischenablage02y.jpg/ the icon is set but though the icon is missing in the msg-window...
2) I don't want to disable it, I just want to disable the text "has stopped typing"... but since this is not possible (very bad to implement a new layout feature that can't be disabled...), I at least want to define another icon for "stopped typing"... where to do?
3) always when someone sends me a file, this thing shows up as shown on the screenshot... and that steals focus from other windows (also when I'm typing something) which is very enervous...

Here is a crashlog from this build:

I didn't do anything special to trigger this - it was normal operation

1, i have also the black icon, however i see the icon in the options/icons menu. (same problem as buggled)

btw when i am sending/receiving files, another window opens for a second. (called "File Transfers")(http://culino.kexik.net/files/miranda-FT.jpg), though it doesn't steal the focus, but it's slightly annoying to have opened 3 miranda windows at same moment

It only happens with classic windows theme and was fixed already.

You can't (and there won't be an option for this, just to avoid the obvious question). The "stuck" icon is buggy in build #3, it should disappear for the "stopped typing" message which should only be visible in the status bar and nowhere else.

And really, "bumping" issues here doesn't make sense. If you don't get a response, simply wait for the next build and verify that a given issue is still there

What does this mean "was already fixed?"? do you mean in the svn codes so this should be fixed for me in #4?

Of course, only in SVN. There is no new build out.

As there is no thread for 0.8.9#2 I will post my question here:
Is it normal, that advaimg.dll stays always active, even if I deactivate it (and of course rerun Miranda after that...)?
