what operating system is your SO using?

[warpedbored]

I loaded QQ once because my stepson in China likes it and wifey wanted to try it. Unfortunately QQ doesn't like American XP I had to uninstall it.

We have windows 2000 and QQ will not work on our system.Seems will not support QQ.

I know exactly what is happening, and it is fairly easy to fix.

 

Download the older 2005 version of QQ "english"

 

Download APPLOCALE from Microsoft.

Using Applocale locate QQ.EXE and apply Chinese Simplified location to QQ.

 

Locate new QQ icon in applocale folder on start-menu and copy it to desktop, and replace QQ's old icon in the start-up folder.

I strongly recommend keeping any application even remotely related to QQ as far away from your PC as possible. It is nortorious and one of the worst offenders in installing hidden artifacts and applications used for tracking. Additionally, it's filled with trojans. If you've already installed it, be aware that performing an uninstall will allow an almost infinite number of artifacts to remain in your registry. Finding them is a task in exasperation.

 

There are so many other applications that are PC safe that can be used in it's place.

I have XP and QQ is no problem for us. Just make sure you have the updated version installed and a good anti-virus and spyware program...

The QQ web-site is fine. DO NOT download qqplay.exe. Most virus and spyware programs will detect it.

start > settings>control panel> regiona language setting> advanced tab and in the drop down list on top select chinese and check the box at the very bottom. assuming you installed east language fonts on the Languages tab as you said.

 

edit:may require a reboot...

Amen, same experience. I have been using Microsoft PinYin for as long as I can remember. No problems with it, other than Lixin says my font isn't pretty. ÎÒϲ»¶Õâ¸öºº×Ö¡£ Does it look OK to you?

[chrisnhong]

As I understand it, if you load up Pidgin, it will communicate through the QQ network and most others. No spyware.

While we're near the subject, how do you get your email program to display hanzi without having to tell it every time? I'm tired of looking at jibberish (don't speak, read, or write it). Running Xp. I use Yahoo mail and also myway.com (hughesnet)
