Zefan, can you explain to me what facebook chat is? i have no clue what everyone is talking about

It's kind of like normal facebook but with either an egg net or a sweet and sour source depending on restaurant, er, browser

Does it require an SSE3 capable CPU? Or will I be able to use it on my older machines too?

It must be your TCI/IP settings, check those!

SSE2 will be OK but you do get 5-10% boost with SSE3

I'm not touching facebook chat. Not since I found out they harvest all the words you use in messages/wall posts/status etc. Imagine what chat'd be like! Anonymous my ****.

I'm confused...i can't find ActiveX on Vista? Or %PROGRAMFILES%\Facebook\chatter directory?

Doohickey · 23 Apr 2008 at 19:39

Gah, had to reformat. Slipstreamed the classic Facebook into my install though, doesn't force me to update now.

Are you blind?

SideWinder · 23 Apr 2008 at 19:44

I can't even see 'Facebook' in Program Files...but you're not using Vista so...

lol...some people are just too gullible lol

Skeptic · 23 Apr 2008 at 19:46

Have you got files hidden? Unhide your files and you will find it. I'm on Vista and this was where I got confused.

It's the same for Vista and XP.

Are you using 64bit? Maybe the folder gets stored somewhere else with this version...

Heard if you delete system 32 it fixes this.

Welshy · 23 Apr 2008 at 19:51

Is there a SERIOUS way to get rid of it? In account settings? I can't find any options....
