Help! Any chat wise peoples. MTSU has implemented a new doohicky you have to have to get online. Its keeping me from using IRC or any chat programs though. If you have any ideas on how to get around this, please help.

Try Polarhome . It's what I use to get through the firewalls at work.

I concur with Miss Phaedra.
To access the chats on the uf server though, you'd just have to login with
Quote:
Username: (whatever name you use, duh! )
Server: irc.chat-solutions.org:6667
Room: #unfiction (or whatever room you're looking for)
But that's pretty IRC-typical... just wanted to make sure you knew that though. (I didn't at first.)
Anyway, happy chatting!

What sort of doohicky are you using? A special browser?

Remember though, be safe. Only use a clean, sterile doohicky. Never share doohickys with co-workers or friends. Always unplug your doohicky when not in use. Doohicky packaging is not a toy.

Also, don't use a Doohickey twice.

Do not use your Doohickey in the shower. Do not expose your Doohickey to prolonged amounts of sunlight. Do not throw your Doohickey into fire.

Thank you Addie for making the Happy Fun Ball reference. I was totally waiting for that (and was the TOTAL vein I was going for with my post! YAY!)

There is a possibility that port 6667 is being blocked (if so, they really really just want you to pay more attention to you work ). You can try to connect to irc.chat-solutions.org:6660, Chat Solutions uses that as an alternative port.
I take it you have already tried the unfiction applet ?
