It has started again, suddenly and without any rhyme or reason.... HELP!!

It seems to have stopped on its' own, and I have no idea why. Thanks for the ideas, but I never figured out what was wrong

I should have mentioned it was on my alt account. I have removed everything, checked worn items. It started on a sim where I dont have rezz rights, and has followed me wherever I go. It only does it on my alt account, and not on any others, so it has somehow attached itself to that account, almost like it was hacked or something.

I made the mistake of putting on an ONDUTY **bleep** and immediately started getting spammed, on channel 2. I removed it, and deleted it and the spam continues unabated. I relogged and it continues, I deleted the SL folder in appdata and it didnt help. I uninstalled and reinstalled SL viewer and it didnt help, It has somehow attached to my avatar. I checked in "worn items" and even searched for it and it doesnt exist in my inventory, I did a character test and it still continues. I was on a sim where I dont have rezz rights and thats where it started. Nothing I do stops it, I checked my avatar over and over and have removed ALL attachments and scripts that I can find, and it continues. HELP

It is a link in someone's profile that you have to click on, it has the words "wearfolder" in the link. It is simple enough to take off, but it can be annoying. Lesson learned, be cautious about links you click on. Read them carefully.

I have noticed a similar issue. If I tp into a region I am banned in with an alt, I can get in without a problem. If I try to get in in any alt, again no issue. As soon as I try to get in in the banned avatar, I am told I am banned. so then I try again with the alts and it is no go... I get the message about not being authorized in the region. I have to reboot my comp to get it to clear. But as long as I don;t try to get in in the banned account, I can get in all day in an alt. SO my logical conclusion is that something remembers you tried in a banned avatar and remembers it. It may be an issue with SL and permissions, I don't know. I understand that to prevent an IP address from showing you have to disable voice, music and media.

Haha, yes Rolig you have a point. Basically because I am a rebel, and the more you tell me you don't want me somewhere, the more I have to be there.... LOL Plus it is one of the few places where I have friends I like to hang out with. I never caused any problems, or issues I simply told the owner in IM what I thought of her and I guess she didnt like it. Thanks for the response, though. You have answered my question. Slan

My main account has been banned unfairly I believe, although I know a sim owner doesnt have to have a reason to ban someone. My issue is that now I can't tp into the sim in any of my alts, even one alt that has never been there and I never told her about is outright banned as well as one other alt, and my main avatar. All the others give me the "access" message, when I try to TP in. I suspect the sim owner has some kind of method of IDing people's IP address, or she has been given all this information by someone else, but I have no way to prove it. I have reported the people involved, who and what I suspect. Disclosure of personal data without my consent, and I think I have given enough information for a thorough investigation, and it is my understanding that Linden Labs can prove whether or not such information was passed to her or she obtained it illegally... is this correct? Lastly, is it possible that this message is caused by a glitch in SL, or does it sound more like somehow my private information has been compromised? At very least I am concerned that she has been given or is able to access personal information, and have reported it. Thanks for any help or insight you can give me. :)

I guess the lesson here is to wait until LL is done with their maintenance and fixes before coming to the forums for help. Thank you everyone for your help.

Haha sorry, yeah I am on a desktop with a new graphics card, and ethernet connection so it's good there. I gave up trying to use wireless on SL long ago. Thank you... I am pretty sure it is an issue on SL's end since I am hearing a lot from others inworld about it, and the problem didn;t start until this morning when the "connectivity issues" were first reported. Thanks so much I saved that link for future reference

I am not having any issues in any of my alts whatsoever, only this account. If it was my connection, it would do it on all of them.

I have a few alts and am not having any issues in those at all. Only this account.

Since the connectivity issues today, I can't get my avatar to load or rezz. My contact list has no names, and no one can communicate with me, although I am showing online. I have uninstalled and reinstalled twice, did a clean re-install every time and STILL am having the same problems. When I am logging in and it gets to the part where it says "requesting region capabilities" it has to make 3 attempts before it connects. Please someone help. After reading some of the other questions it is obvious it isnt just me. All I can do is wait for SL to get it resolved. I have a few alts, and am not experiencing ANY issues in those, only this account.

Hi Bella, I wish I could say I had some answers for you, but unfortunately I don't. And I doubt LL has any either. My girl is having the same issues, crashing every 10-30 minutes... terrible lag, and inventory not loading, the list goes on and on. Her main problem is an inability to stay in SL for longer than 40 minutes on average. And now I hear there are more code changes coming up that will affect everyone. I personally don't get it. Why would Linden Labs consistantly make it harder and harder for the average person to get in and stay in SL. It boggles my mind. Maybe they only want wealthy computer geeks who have and can afford all the newest technology at the cost of hundreds and thousands of dollars that MOST people can't afford, I don't know. They are strangely silent on this, and I have asked this question repeatedly. Why make it harder for people to come into and stay in SL, you would think they'd want to make it easier for us, but no. The answers I get blame HER ISP, or HER connection, or HER RAM is corrupted, or HER computer isnt up to standards... It's always HER fault and NEVER theirs.... as far as they are concerned, their code is God, and their viewer is Jesus Christ.... infallible and perfect, with everyone else and their computers being the devil. I have decided to let go of my SL house and drop my premium account, why should I pay 77.00 US per annum (not including the hundreds of USD that I spend in SL itself on tiers, stream, and purchases) when they don't seem interested in helping anyone but themselves. I don't expect a rational reply from them taking ANY responsibility for the issues we are having, I am sure we will be told its our computer, our connection, etc. etc. they will deflect responsibility back onto us and list about 10 things it COULD be, and none of those things will include their code changes. I hope you get your issues worked out, but I am not holding my breath.... Hang onto your virtual hat. more problems for the average user are coming with these new code changes they are instituting, and of course it will always be OUR fault. I fully expect to be called a hater, and nothing could be further from the truth, if it were I wouldn't waste my time and money in SL. I would move to another grid, and there are lots of them. I am simply a frustrated resident of Second Life, here for 4+ years, and learning that we don't matter, only our money does. -CS
