All I see is a incomprehesible text document.

Open them in Excel or IE.

I open my ATOT PM's (saved as a .txt file) using Notepad then search by keywords or AT username.

I'm sorry ross that does'nt seem to work for me. I get stuff like this:

"bæZ?öªF?ÐÔÌ4?zÖV[+ñ"

 

[Evadman]

you have to save as a textfile. Did they change it?

 

[MrYogi]

rename it to filename.txt or filename.html

What is the file name (including extension)

What OS are you using?

Try renaming the file to ATOTPMS.txt

Try renaming the file to ATOTPMS.txt

It saved automatically as: pmexport.txt

I'm using windows 2000.

I tired both still gibberish...It saves as a .txt file automatically but I renamed it .html per your instuctions and still unreadable when IE tried to open. Would you mind verifying this works on your account? Thanks🙂

 

[Tetsuo]

just right click "open with" choose notepad

 

[Zebo]

Ah I figuered it out thanks guys for your help🙂


It appears Proximitron ad blocker was stopping it from being a "good" download.. I bypassed it and all works..

Ehhh.

 

[RossMAN]

Is Proximitron a good pop-up blocker?

I hate Google toolbar.

I guess not now😛. Seriously, I've used it since about 01' and thought it was great. I also use a complete .hosts file to block all shockwave ads.

THREAD HIJACK! (not really, he got his problem figured out)

Google toolbar has been the best, most unobtrusive popup blocker I've used yet. It's about the fourth one I've tried. What problems do you have with it??

 

[bunker]

Damn dp. :|

 

[RossMAN]

Blocking the wrong pop ups, I have tried the "allow pop up" but I dunno I just get easily irritated.

Now I feel like a hug, any takers?
