I'm having problems with the chat bar at the bottom of the screen. When I change pages and I'm in the middle of a conversation the next things the other person says often (not always) wont show up. It may only be when I go back to another page I'm not sure. So if I want to have a conversation I have to stay on the same page or risk missing what the other person is saying. If I go back to the other page that I was on prior to changing pages often the writing the other person did shows up. I know it isn't new typing because it will show up in between what I was writing. I don't chat all the time, but this has been going on since the chat bar first showed up.

I have a PC, Vista operating system, using google chrome.

Yeah, I think the chatbar kind of assumes you're going to stay on the same page while chatting?

How about opening a new browser window for browsing, while keeping the chatbar open on the first window? Does the chatbar work as expected then??

Have you tried using a different web browser to see if it may be a browser-specific issue...?

I don't chat too often using it, but I will try these next time I do.

I have heard that it does not work so well on Google chrome. I use firefox and it works fine on that and you can flit to different pages and chat at the same time no problem.

I used to use firefox, but then it kept crashing on me so I switched. I guess I will have to go back for chating using the chat bar.
