I can't get into chat.
 As soon as I click on CHAT, I am dumped out of PC and any other pages I might have open. The tool bar remains and says I'm connected (I have DSL.) I uninstalled/reinstalled IE ... 6, 7, then went to Mozilla to see if that made any difference. Nope. Any ideas?

Too many programs open maybe? I assume you've got Java up-to-date as well? My computer sometimes freezes when trying to get into chat... but it doesnt shut down quite like that.
How long has this been happening, and have you made any changes to your computer recently or downloaded anything new?

No other programs open. I have 100 MB allotted anyway.
 Yes to the changes....and the problem is ... I'm having difficulty on BOTH computers, and it's hard to figure out because the changes weren't made on both computers. My issues on the other computer rotate around the ISP...who is sending me a CD to reinstall the main program. I wonder if the tech could have done something that affected my ability to chat??????  I'm not able to think about this enough to figure it out. I'm only able to get on PC with mozilla right now, as IE totally crashed also... perhaps it's IE? But I removed and reinstalled it... began with IE 6 since 7 gave me trouble when it first came out...but then I also went to 7 just in case but still issues. I restored both computers to a previous time....

Maybe it "just" closes all the windows? I can reinstate the session with firefox... anyone know of a place where I can tell it NOT to close the windows?
 and to let me into chat? (I've added it to my allow site lists... found two places for that, anyone know of another place it might be reading?)

....this seems to me to be caused by one or two simple fixes...for someone who knows these things. Help! I'm brain dead today too. As soon as the address is read, all tabs/windows close. Where is the command for this, anyone know?

yes, tried all that
 I've only found two places to adjust the pop up blocker...so if there's a third, someone remind me? (My ISP task bar, and the mozilla task bar.) I restored it back to March. You know how it goes... you want the very thing you can't have? I want chat back!

Ok I just tried to load HouseCalls (virus scanner) and it did the same thing...closed all windows. Ok so it's a command somewhere...whether of my own choosing or not IDK.

Thanks for replying.
I restored it to a still earlier point and chat works... but up popped the java update and I told it later. Could it be the latest update from Java that caused the problems? Anyone else have issues with it, or should I just go ahead and update java again. (I can always restore again eh?)  Still don't know what the issue is. I'm back on IE through the restore... Ok well thanks for reading anyway. lol

Grrr...
I am on firefox now. Again. Today, the computer wouldn't load and had to reset itself (nice Windows programming) and it also had to restore to a previous point (on it's own) and... now I can't get into chat again!  No virus. No outdated programs. I don't get it.
