 For those of you that remember (and those that don t), we chat on IRC on Monday nights (and also Thursday nights) from 8:00 to 10:00 PM eastern.  Don t confuse this with PUT s Fireside chat.
 
 We d love to have more join us.
 
 We re on the ChatNet network (note: not Chat_Net or Chat-Net) in the #pop-up-trailers chat room.
 
 If you have no idea what I m talking about, say so and I ll post more details.

 AustinBostonI can t get in to chatnet, says I am running an insecure proxy :(:(:(:(

 birolWhen you were booted last week, GeeMan followed the links that Chatnet put up, and they weren t about proxys.
 
 I saw someone get booted for insecure proxys (we re not quite sure what an insecure proxy is), then get connected again without another problem.  Others have been booted and never got back.
 
 You might try again.

 AustinBostonCan you repost the instructions I lost them when my puter crashed. TIA

birol

 AustinBostonYou have to use a chat prigram, either pirch or mirc (they are the only ones I recall right now). You can get mirc from www.mirc.com.
 
 install it and let it conntact to any chatnet server. Once connected type /join pop-up-trailers in the lower part of the windows whcih opens up when there is a connection.

 Details, details...
 
 First, you want a ChatNet (not chat-net or Chat_Net) sever (which birol has correct), but then you type /join #pop-up-trailers .
 
 The " /"  and " #"  signs are important.

 AustinBoston# is not important [:D]
 
 I mean it [;)]
 
 I never type it [:)]
 
 Seriously !

AustinBoston

 birolUh, OK...this could be a ChatNet thing, because it was definitely needed with DalNet.
 
 Austin

birol

 AustinBostonI don t recall if I used them on Dalnet, I think it was designating the registered channels, and as such probably was required.
 
 
 I think it is good practice to use them anyways, I was just teasing you little bit. [8D]
