ziggo99 Posted June 3, 2006 Report Share Posted June 3, 2006 I just searched, didn't find anything helpful, because nothing was there. Is the chat room dead? I've tried tonight, and a month or so ago, and both times, it wont connect. Could someone help me here? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
elrey Posted June 3, 2006 Report Share Posted June 3, 2006 Are you using Comcast? Or maybe AOL? Or have you ever done anything to Ubar? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
joeking27 Posted June 3, 2006 Report Share Posted June 3, 2006 Those issues have been resolved. What error message are you getting, and have you tried with a different client? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Marlowe Posted June 3, 2006 Report Share Posted June 3, 2006 Ziggo: chances are it's an issue with the client you're using. That or your browser does not have java installed, if you're using the default chatroom java applet. If you post the error message you get we might be able to help - or at least tell you what's wrong. By the way, just as a quick request, please resize your sig so that it does not exceed 100x400 pixels. Any larger than that and one of the moderators will be forced to remove it. Thanks.

cazboab Posted June 3, 2006 Report Share Posted June 3, 2006 If you were trying to connect to irc.arniesairsoft.co.uk, it might not have been switched over to point at the right server at the time you tryed, as far as I know that was only done today, or at least I only noticed today . if you're haveing trouble connecting to the chatroom with the java app, try useing a third party client such as mirc or trillian to connect to irc.darkmyst.org, you can also try useing the java/CGIRC clients on www.darkmyst.org, or reading some of there suggestions for connecting.

ziggo99 Posted June 4, 2006 Author Report Share Posted June 4, 2006 Well, I'm using my Hp computer now, and it's fine. Only my Dell wont work with it. I cant get the error message off it now, but I'll post it later. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Marlowe Posted June 4, 2006 Report Share Posted June 4, 2006 Ziggo: chances are it's software related then. Check to see that java is installed and that any firewall software you have is not blocking it. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
ziggo99 Posted June 5, 2006 Author Report Share Posted June 5, 2006 Ok, I'm done my Dell, and this is what I get: Unable to connect : java.net.SocketException : Software caused connection abort: connect What does this mean? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
cazboab Posted June 5, 2006 Report Share Posted June 5, 2006 (edited) Do you have any antivirus or firewall on your Dell other than what came with windows? IE norton, mcafee etc? Edited June 5, 2006 by cazboab Quote Link to post Share on other sites
ziggo99 Posted June 6, 2006 Author Report Share Posted June 6, 2006 I might have macfee, but it expired about a year ago, but my brother is always putting on anti-everything. And it would ask me if I wanted to blck or allow the program. Any help now? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
cazboab Posted June 6, 2006 Report Share Posted June 6, 2006 Try downloading one of These clients, it could be your install of java is either the wrong flavour or set up wrong on the dell. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
