    I don't know javascript at all but this is the error code I'm getting. I run FF3.6 on XP Professional. Any help would be great. I can use some chat programs but not all and definitely not this one.

    Chat works fine for me. You might need to update your version of Java.

    I did have a problem the other day and it required an install of the latest Java files. I did run through the steps clicking on the plugin sign gave, but found it didn't work. But I did find a manual install of the Java update did work. Might want to try that. I'm at the mercy of the FREE chat program.

    This is a common error that occurs when the Java client receives a server side reply that it does not recognize. (Please don't ask any questions about this, I am skating at the edge of my ice as it is. Gone are the BASIC, DOS and early Windows days when I could make a computer do amazing tricks. Now the only trick I am proficient at seems to be making one roll over and play dead! ) The problem may have been introduced when you updated to FF3.6. Anyway, make sure (as Chris says) you have the latest Java client installed, and also clear your browser cache! If all else fails, add the latest version of IE to your computer and try using that instead of FF.

    IE? NOOOOOOOOOO!!!!

    I'll clear out the cache but I think RF chat is getting caught by Websense here at work somehow. Chat works on my home PC but not here. Cover it Live doesn't work for me here either, even just the replay views. FlashChat, the old dinosaur Ajax and the new really weird Avatar chat works though. I can't figure it out. I know Java is updated b/c I check it weekly and it auto-downloads monthly. Oh well, I guess I'm not supposed to chat on RF from work at least. It's OK, I'll survive somehow..

    Bro, I know we are free from the law, but I don't think that extends to your company's rules against chatting using work computers!

    We had about 5 in chat the other night. i think it might be easily resolved if people are still having trouble.
