Haunted by a box

Post by Your Teacher »

I have a box attached to my avatar. No one else can see it. Sometimes I can detach it, sometimes I can't. It doesn't show up in "Wearing" or "Edit Avatar". It turns up in Firestorm and in Singularity. I've reinstalled both, and flushed my cache. It's driving me nuts. Any ideas?

Is it anything like being Pursued by a ghostlike wig, as happened to me a while back and which Oren kindly exorcised for me?

hi your Teacher,

Did you do a clean installation? That is, did you first uninstall your viewer and only then reinstall the viewer anew?

Yes Ilan. (I always do that with Firestorm).

I did a screenshare for my students last night, because they didn't believe me about the box. They were highly amused, and enjoyed listening to the song "I'm living in a box, living in a cardboard box". :)

Can you please attach a screenshot and show the box's UUID?

I can't get the boxes UUID as it doesn't actually seem to exist. At the risk of embarrassing myself - here's a screenshot:-

Ooh! I just managed to find a "blacklist" command, and clicked it. It's gone! Yippee!

If you remove it from the blacklist does it return?
