IRC not working.
« on: February 15, 2013, 08:40:11 am »
Hello fellow RR'ers. I wish to chat with you via IRC but I can't acces it. This is what it shows when I click IRC, agree with the Java thingy and let it load:

Java 7 is known to have some huge security exploits. It could be your antivirus blocking it as mine blocks it too. I have to disable my antivirus to run the client and then enable it. :p

It looks like a normal "click yes to run" screen but it's asking you if you want to block the program, you have to click "no" for it to run. To get this to popup again exit fully out of your browser and run it again. :)

Be a superior IRC user and use a better client.
