Every once in a while , i click on the Chat link , just to see if i can get onto that page . All i get is a big empty box , with a little box with a red X in it up in the corner. Can i get some help as to what i am doing wrong.
Also note , that i am EXTREMELY comuter challenged. so keep it simple, I am proud of the fact that i can even type this message and get it posted............... :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol:
thanks
Joe.

The chat is JAVA script and I have heard that some firewall settings can prevent access.

Joe,

I use OSX on a Mac so your windows may look different than what I am showing you, but the sequence should be the same...

After clicking

I am presented with a popup window like...

I click the "Trust" button


and if I'm not blocked by a firewall, I see a JAVA window like shown below...

When you first come into the chat room, you will have a name like Anonymous. That will be you!!
Com'on in and we'll help to get you going.

If you are getting a red x that could mean you need to install java onto your computer.

Thsi is one site where you can get the program. Install it and you should be able to access it.
