buddy list and tp's not working, blue skirt things on people

My sl is being more screwy than normal. My buddy list shows everyone offline, messaging them doesn't send an offline message (that i can tell), nor does it make them pop back online like earlier versions of this bug. when I look at anyone's profile, no text appears in the text areas, and occasionally pictures do not appear (it appears to me like no picture is there to be displayed, even if i know there should be), and none of the buttons on the bottom of a profile are available. Also, whenever i move or tp, i crash almost immediately (certainly before I actually get anywhere). Finally, random people have... blue particle skirt things around them. i don't know what to call them. sometimes objects have red ones.

this all started randomly. i logged for lunch when everything was working fine. i log back in and this happened. no warning or strange behavior beforehand. i tried logging off for a few hours, tried purging the cache, tried reinstalling sl from a fresh install exe from the website here. nothing's helped, and no one else seems to be having the same problems from what i can tell. anyone know what my problem is?

I'm also having this exact same problem. No one online in my list(I check webpage and it says they are online), cannot send or receive IMs, profiles not loading. I have relogg'd MANY times, dump cache, rebooted, and I still can't get anything to work. It's like I'm not completely logging in or something. Yes, I have checked my firewall -.- ...

SL as is, is totally useless to me now *growls*

Any help?!?!?!

I see you're pretty new. It is not uncommon after updates to see this kind of behavior....and it happens other times as well....search if funky, friends list does not show those online, can't TP, etc.

Regarding the cones, you have "Show Updates" turned on.

ctrl-alt-shift-u will toggle it on/off.
