Hello there is a crash code being spread around on imvu like wildfire, one day I saw two n00bs spamming it and they accidentally hid the text box chat and some of it appeared in the bubbles so I figured it out.

The problem now is that a lot of people know it and there are some notorious crashers, sometimes I can rule them out being that we're in multiple rooms together, other times it's a random person.

Also through observing and asking users what kind of OS they use, I realized mac os doesn't crash with this code, so far it's only windows. through assumption I can tell when it was used because of the error message that pops up when IMVU crashes, occasionally I'll scroll through it and find the same error messages or whatever you call that stuff.

PM for more details

it's normally butt hurt people who crash the rooms now, or if other users are conversating and having a good time they tend to crash the whole room or if they get ignored or little things like that, sometimes they spam it so much that every time people rejoin the room they immediately crash, some people do it spontaneously, others just spam it until the room is empty and everyone gives up on joining back or until they've got rid of the person they wanted to "boot" out the room.

Pm me the crash code an all relevant information and at some point I'll look into adding some sort of protection to IMVULite or something.

Is your crash related to someone spamming a crash code in a room?

Yes, all the time.

Why doesn't the room owner boot people who spam? I am pretty sure if you block someone they can't join your room too.

Also, IMVULite and T3DE both have a mute feature, does that protect you from the crash code?
