I was able to log on fine. Might be your settings. (whatever those are)

The only way I can get into the chat is if I use Explorer. Firefox won't work for me at all. So I guess you could try that.

I'm using Opera 9 by the way with no problems.

Thanks for the tips.I'm using Explorer, and I used to be able to login no problems. Now I can't from either work or home.Could this be a firewall thing? ADMINS- does it use any different ports?

The most important thing to note here is that this is NOT actually hosted as a part of Genvibe. We really have no control over it.Standard HTTP port though. It's just a Java applet hosted on a regular website.My suggestion would be to try removing/reloading Java VM on your computer. Uninstall as you would any application and then download it from:http://www.java.com/en/download/manual.jsp

OK, it definitely is a firewall issue. I put the firewall here at home down to low, and could connect no problem.There must be something different from the standard HTTP port....

looks like loading the applet uses some random port, but logging in and sending lines seems to consistently use TCP port 8002
