I do not know if any of the other moderators or any of the mebers speak french, so I will try to help you in english.

The current version of YaY uses Microsoft Internet Explorer to display the CPATCHA image. So, the first question is: do you have Internet Explorer installed?

If there is an error before and while trying to retrieve the CAPTCHA imagine, YaY execution will halt, the second question is: Are you getting any errors in the command prompt?

While launching YaY by double clicking the file ( or a shurtcut to the file) is possible, is not recommended because the error dies with the command prompt window when this one closes automatically. Please read this topic: viewtopic.php?f=2&t=111&p=397#p397

Good luck,
Using engines to cheat:
- It is not ethical,
- It is useless, nothing is gained (how can one be proud of a score earn with dishonesty?)
- You will be baned, sooner or later,
- It gives us (the true chess engine players) a bad reputation.

Are you using windows Vista?

If so please read this topic.. viewtopic.php?f=2&t=115

You could try different ID's aswell before looking for a problem, as I have certain ID's that always fail to show the test word with YtoICS/YaY.

Yep , its a common problem ,please turn off your firewall and antivirus and try again...... it will work,,esp if you are using kaspersky anti virus ,it blocks explorer.
