Help me Rick

[mistermom]

Hey Rick!

I can't ever get into the chat room. Every time I get stuck at: Connect: hostfishingmn. com contacted. waiting for reply... But nothing happens. I've left it for more than an hour once and still nothing happened.

It's not a huge deal; but the fact that I can't get in makes me want in that much more. Thanks sir!

Make sure you have Java enabled in your browser and that it's IE 5.5 or higher.

Other than that, I don't know what else to tell you.

Let me know how it goes please.

If you're trying from work there may be a firewall. The same happens to me when trying to connect from work

[mistermom]

Thanks Rick!

I looked at a bunch of technical dump that I don't understand. My conclusion is that I have a very weak cup of Java (1.1.5 '96-'97 netscape version). So I think if I ever want to chatter I'm gonna have to upgrade. What thinks you?

Hey Dave!

Sorry that ain't it. I really am a mistermom. No work but housework. Thats why I'm such a whiz on a computer! Well, I can type anyway.

Yip,
that old version of Netscape just won't cut it for these new-fangled gadgets.

[mistermom]

Hey! This is almost like being in the chat room. Pretend with me!

Hi Mary!

When I get upgraded I'll give it a try. I bet it gets more use in months like Feb and March.

Or perhaps my witty banter will draw people to the chat room....Nah!

Mistermom, I'm very impressed with your occupation. In today's "I need all the money I can get" world, its nice to see someone put their kids first. Good job!!

If you need a newer browser and don't have cable or dsl, let me know and I'll burn you a copy.

Thanks MNice and gte!
I do need all the money I can get. I fish. In our situation it just makes more sense for me to stay home.

I don't have cable or dsl yet. I guess you could burn me a copy. That would be great. I don't know exactly what that means. But it sounds good. I have about a 4 year old Imac that my friend Terry calls a toy.

Nothing wrong with an iMac. What version / browser would you like - Internet Explorer, Netscape Navigator, both? I'll download and burn to CD.
