Update November 1, 2007

Orbidden IMs are probably caused by the Translator Plugin but then again things got complicated after it occurred without the translator plugin installed. So lets go over some of the symptoms you are having, there has not been a known fix to people without the translator plugin.

1. Aim Freezes for a more than 20 seconds

2. Every new additional IM you get states "Orbidden"

3. The Hard Drive loads excessively.

This problem is Unsolved and no true fix has been found, you can follow the suggestions below but it may or may not fix your problem.

 

 

It was hinted to a while ago but was hard to find people to test out theories to get back to you quickly. In trying to fix this problem you’ll just have to disable or change the Translation to NONE. This bug usually occurs randomly where every new IM you receive states the message, "Orbidden" .

Suggestion: How to Disable the Translator Plugin if you Recieve "Orbidden" Messages

1. Click on Edit

2. Click On Settings

3. Click on Plugins

4. Uncheck Translator

5. Click Save

There you have it.
