Google Talk

[MrG]

I need some suggestions to what can cause this issue. I loaded Google Talk on my Vista RTM machine and I cant let this one slide away and ignore it.

There are programs that didnt want to work correctly, but this one I need it to work.

I load the program logon, contacts are there, I can chat... all good. The problem comes in with me receiving messages. At some point I just stop receiving messages and the person sending the messages receive a "All receipients could not receive the messsages" kinda text.

I turned off the Firewall thinking its doing something, didnt work. Any ideas what cause cause Google Talk to be blocking the incoming messages at random times?

I'd recommend you confront google with this problem, however you can't expect it to work since it is not designed for Vista (is it ?). This will surely get sorted out in the future though.

Maybe try a third party Jabber client like Gaim or Psi?

yeah its XP/2000, I was thinking it could just be the program that is not working correctly with Vista as an O.S, but maybe possibly something in the security... well lol Vista kinda is a giant secruity suite now

I reinstalled Google Talk, and restarted Windows (looked at my uptime in the SideBar and said I was up for 2 days 4 hours)

I restarted Windows, restarted Google Talk after reinstall, and its acting correctly... for now.

If it gives you problems in future try using it with a different app, might give an indication of whether its an application problem or a Vista security problem.
