New BTW
I haven't seen your user get created. Try again; if you still can't work it out, ping me on AIM: "The Cargo Cult" or MSN: peter_whysall@msn.com

New "Join a Chat Room" not an option!
At least not until I get signed on, and that's the point that's failing.

Exodus | Sign On/Off<enter>

Gives Profile dialog. Choose Default Profile (which is actially the only selection)...Hit OK

"Trying to Connect" (spinney globe).......Disconnected...Reconnect in n seconds (value tends to change from try to try)
Rinse.
Repeat.

(At some point, Exodus stops repeating the futile exercise.)

OK, so I'm on the other end of a proxy. There is a CGI script that configures the proxy for both Insecure Exposer and Mozilla (and, miraculously,the same script works on both browsers!) In the Proxy tab, I have a Type: box with the cryptic choices: None, Version 4, Version 4a, Version 5 and HTTP. Doesn't look like there's a place for my cgi script anywhere...

So how would chatzilla work here...?

New Ah, it's prolly the proxy
If you can't get through on port (mumble, think it's 5222), you're prolly screwed.

Can you do, in a command window, "telnet iwethey.org 5222", press a bunch of keys and hit ENTER, and get "<stream:error>Invalid XML</stream:error>" in return?

New From the C:> prompt...
Enter "telnet iwethey.org 5222"

Get back Connecting To iwethey.org...<pregnant pause>Could not open a connection to host on port 5222 : Connect failed

Try on Moz: "[link|telnet://iwethey.org:5222|telnet://iwethey.org:5222]"
Opens Hyperterm(!)...<pregnant pause again>get message box: Unable to connect to iwethey.org on port 5222....OK (of COURSE it's not OK, but Micros~1 doesn't give you a "Not Fucking OK" button!)

Will try at home on my dial-up connection...

In the meantime...would/does chatzilla work?

New Chatzilla can't help, sorry.
It's an IRC client, not a Jabber client.
