Speaking of the Java-thing - - - did you see the note on the home page?  Bob dug into the Java situation and made some comments, and then I asked him for a bit of interpretation -- and that's posted, too.  Go ahead and read both and decide what you want to do.

I un-disabled Java -- but with the knowledge of what MIGHT happen.  Also, though, I'm taking a chance that things will be okay because I use Apple, not Wintel computers.  And also because I hope that nothing nasty will happen.  How's that for a good line of reasoning?

Sorry guys, won't be in the Java based chat, removed that POS software and it cured the issues I was having with the computer. Lots of other good chat software to choose from. After seeing Rob, Charles, myself and others repeatedly get locked up or booted I am dont with the hassle, the last three weeks were very disappointing.  :-( :x

Prolly oughta get in on this!
Maybe there is no Heaven. Or maybe this is all pure gibberish. The product of a demented hill billy who has found a way to live out where the winds blow. To sleep late, have fun, drink whiskey, and drive fast on empty streets with nothing in mind except falling in love or getting arrested.    H.S. Thompson

Trent,

Uninstall your current Java, restart your PC, download and install the current version. Open IE,  go into "Internet options" and delete 100% of your history. Restart again and hopefully you're good to go, or at least way better off.

I still get a few Javascript errors every time I log in but other than that, I'm golden (now).

Cheers,
Rob

I've asked Bob to look around for a different chat software package - one that doesn't use Java.  He and I are sorta afraid that we won't find one, so if you know of such a critter -- please let us know.

Bob's words: "I can look.  Something like a chat room (I just have a feeling here) would more than likely need Java, as it's used for interactive stuff.  Want me to look?"  And that's where I said yes.  Then he wrote back with:  "Okeedokee.  This'll be something new."

As it stands - we'll have fewer people on Tuesday evenings. because some are dropping out because they've taken the Java out of their web browser - and therefore can't use the Chat line.

So - we're trying to find something.  Stay tuned, and again -- if you know of a chat that will avoid the Java germs, please get in touch with him or me.  Thanks.
