But good to keep in mind, I always empty batteries completely once or twice before I start to use them regularly. Thanks Ruud, this is new for me.

One of my colleagues will dig deeper into the QQEnglish problem, if it turns out to be that the messages are indeed blocked you'll certainly find a post on this blog about it. <br/>Cheers,<br/>Marc Hi Chris, I did some fact checking but could not find anything about this.

Sorry to hear about the spam stuff, on an unrelated problem I have been experiencing, I wonder if you can help me.
I have been having a problem using the chat client QQEnglish – also have a lot of others in the world outside China.

Have you any idea if China has blocked incomming QQ messages, I really hoped I would be able to use your technical expertise and contacts to be able to find out the answer from the “horses mouth”.

Has China stopped Laowei communication through QQ – Chinas’ biggest chat program?
It would make for a good news story on your site.

Many Thanks,
Your reader,

Chris Brown
