[Rebound]

I recently installed Zone Alarm firewall software and was able to get in yesterday but now I can't. I'm not sure if this is something I've done to my system or if it is a problem with the firewall, or thirdly, whether there is a problem with the chatroom... mind you I see there are plenty of ppl already in there. The java window is frozen on the loading logo image dialogue. I hope you may have some idea. TY in advance.

I don't think it's your Zone Alarm. I have it and have no trouble getting into chat. If something does pop-up when you are trying to get in...make sure you say ok. But I could be wrong. I had a LOT of problems when I installed a Microsoft update and had Zone Alarm...but that was an internet connection problem.

I always say no, and if something I want doesn't popup, I try it again. Trial and error. Sorry I wasn't much help!

i had the very same problem yesterday...
i just chalk it up to being a glitch....
cuz it works today.
i hope you can get in, would be nice to see you in there.

I had that a few days ago as well. When I installed the latest Java, it has worked fine since. have you tried doing that?

I had problems when I used Zone Alarm, and uninstalled it. I use lavasoft se now, and everything works fine. (It's also free)

i had problems entering any chat when i downloaded my firewall...what i do when i want to chat it simply turn it off for that time period.

i know there's a more complicated way to allow certain sites, but i'm not good enuf with puter to figure it out. so you might want to just turn it off for chat. you could visit the zone alarm website to figure out how to allow the specific chat site.

oh yeah... if you have more than one firewall operating, that will mess it up too...
