Over the last few months, Windows Vista Ostomyland java chat users have been facing connection problems. The client would load OK, but would not connect to the server and the chat room. During this time we have been advising people to use the Ostomyland mIRC, or regular mIRC scripts if they are facing this problem.
At long last though the source of the problem has been identified, and fix has been worked out. It is now just a matter of implementing it on to the five different variations of our Java Chat windows. This will take a bit of time. With a bit of luck it will be completed over the weekend.
A further announcement will be made once the problem has been fully rectified so that our Windows Vista java-chatters can go back to their client of choice instead of the mIRC program (which is a fabulous program, much more powerful and certainly my preference of the two options, but I appreciate some other people prefer the Java option.)
