I went to the site. My computer immediately posted an intrusion alert message and blocked it. I will stay away. This might be normal, I don't know. I know as much about computers now as I did in the '50s.

Wow the chat room is an EXCELLENT addition to Geocache Alaska! Used it last night and what a way to stay in touch with old cachers and meet new ones. Yup! Right here from my cubicle. Thanks again!

It said my name contained illegal characters so I figured I couldn't use the number 1 so used another name which it didn't allow either. Ideas?

I verified and tried someother Java script things, they worked fine. not sure of the problem. Anyone else have problems? All I see is the smilies down the right side and a three part menu of selection base at bottom. At the top there is a selection box, with 5 dark blue menu boxes next to it.
I would really lilke to get on board with this but seems it is not to be in the near future.

It is a free download with a nag to buy for $20.00. I can help you setup mIRC.

We have a new chat room. I haven't tried it yet. It is free so I decided we should test drive it. Look above the advertising in the main menu. It goes home, help, search, members...the last item is "chat". Click there. Very easy and works for everyone.

I tried the new chit chat site. My computer accepts this site with no problems. Much better than before (although I'm not sure how it was before since my computer always flashed an intrusion alert and recommend I depart the area).

The only reason I can think of that you wouldn't be able to get into Chat is if you're like LBK and have the wrong coffee. Go to www.java.com and download the free software. Don't worry, Its safe.

It would be cool if you could see if people are in the chat room by the icon below the banner. I have said some pretty funny stuff but nobody was there to hear it... I was laughing so hard!

Is there a way to keep the chat window open and still surf the site, like with an IM window?

Is there a way to keep the chat window open and still surf the site, like with an IM window? I think we have to upgrage to do that and the minimum upgrage is $125. So I, for one, am not ready to spend that until I know people want and will use the chat. Keep the feedback coming!
