Odd, the sidebar shows 15 in chat. I launch chat - there are no people and no talky. I've used chat from this pc as recently as last night. Be it me? I see people (numbers) when I look at the channels list, but I see no people in the sidebar.

Odd. I'm experiencing the same thing. It could be one of two things *or both* for me:

1. Upgrade to Firefox 1.5
2. Chat is actually fuxxored

Not sure, it seems as if its still trying to load stuff but it doesn't.


update: nope its not FF, IE is doing it too. I guess the chat is teh down.

Chat is working fine for me and many others have joined in the past 30 minutes or so, and has been all night other than the usual errors and disconnects...

HOWEVER; many come in and say things like "strange, i was the only one here"...

And then I upgraded to FF 1.5 because I heard it had fancy error messages, and of course even after reinstalling Flash and disabling my Flash Blocker (which was also "successfully updated" it doesn't play Flash so I can't join chat... Well I *CAN* and I can hear others chatting, but all I see is a white box...

...Never fix a working system...

If you took half the time to read what I posted as you did to critize my opinion of how I would like to view pages on my own system, you would see that I have de-installed it, and restarted the browser twice to no avail. I have also tried to install 1.0.7 again, but that gives very...interesting GUI errors when you launch it...

And people ask me why I apply Windows patches manually...

EDIT: Problem isolated to Adblock...

Works fine here. I would recommend doing a clean install.

It's fine, it's a problem in Adblock which apparently isn't self-updating. You need to manually update it 0.5.2 or later or it auto-removes all Flash due to a flaw... Fixed. I'm just posting this here in case anyone else has the same problem...

For the fourth and final time, the flash blocker was working perfectly the entire time and did not cause any errors, and had nothing to do with this issue whatsoever...

Adblock, the cause of the errors, is unrelated to my flash blocking, and it's something you, yourself, recommend.

Sure, I recommend it. But when you're trying to solve an issue, you turn off all extensions that screw around with the browser until you fix it.

I myself had similar problems and manually updated Adblock to the newest version to fix them.
