Hi Dave. This is your "resource." It's meant to tell other people where your location. For example, "home" or "work" or "laptop." In this case you have not specified a resource in the account editor, and the Google Talk servers automatically append a unique string. So you're seeing the unique string. This isn't really a problem, and I don't believe it's possible for you to turn it off. You could specify a resource if you want, but the unique string still gets tacked onto the end. -Mark _______________________________________________ [email protected] mailing list Want to unsubscribe?
