Yeah it's too bad, because sending a DM to anyone should be a feature in the first place. Its like an email or a facebook message. One can always block spammers. And the method I wrote worked beautifully right from the beginning till I shared it publicly. If they really "wanted" to provide you the functionality of being able to respond to anyone who had sent u a dm, they would NOT have removed that functionality now when they've cleaned their DM feature . That was a "loophole" as well and hence got closed. – Twilight Fairy, on September 30, 2008 10:19

aah.. actually you can call that one of the ways in which this hack that I blogged about, worked :). When you clicked on the reply icon (in web interface) it created the kind of URL I had mentioned in my post. So yes, you were also using the same hack effectively. However, now that they have "well tested" this feature, it doesnt work anyway. Like they say, it never was a feature, it was a bug. – Twilight Fairy, on September 30, 2008 09:59

this feature was never available in twitter and that's precisely why the hack was devised. Apparently they treated it as a bug and fixed it so NOW this definitely doesnt work by any means. – Twilight Fairy, on September 30, 2008 09:41

I have been facing this problem ever since I upgraded from 0.7.9 or whatever was teh version before 0.8.0. After that i tried 0.8.1 as well, still i am facing this problem. .

besides I was trying twhirl for multiple users and it jsut gets stuck. I can not remove any user or do anythign at all in the tool, just because this authentication failure comes!

I uninstalled, removed registry entries so that it wd somehow 4get I have multiple users, bt that didnt work.
