vBXirc

PLEASE READ

This thread is only here for users who have already installed this hack, there is no longer a public version of vBXirc for vBulletin 3.0.x

There will be a 3.5.x version in the near future.

Sorry for any problems this may have caused.

Clear your cache, clear java's cache as well.

here is my screen shot (hopefully it comes out viewable).

i know how to clear the browsers cache, but how do you clear java's cache?

thanks for all the help!

i'm using java 1.4.1_02 from sun.

i went to java.com and got the latest jvm. 1.4.2_05 and intalled it and rebooted. i also turned caching OFF.

YEEEHA! it works.

very odd though that it worked fine on other sites before, but not my own.

When you reinstalled java it cleared the old cache.

Firstly, great hack - keep up the good work Zach. And don't listen to these clowns complaining about next releases taking ages. You're doing it for nothing, so take your time.

Now to my issue - this hack works great for 95% of my users, but there's a couple (and one windger in particular) who get the connection refused connection null error (or whatever it says). They all reckon they have the firewalls and av's turned off, but still get this error.

I try telling them it has to be their firewalls or something, the applet works and they can get the IRC messages, they just get this connection null error. So itsn't that a firewall issue?

How can we overcome this problem Zach? Or what can I tell the so that they will PO.

If its working for 99% of your users, its just these few who are having an issue i am not sure what it could be, ask them to update their java instaltion and turn off their firewall completely and virus scanners for a short time and see if this allows them to connect.

after reading through all 39 pages of this thread,
i just want to say, zachery, you have the patience of a saint.

how many times has the same directory question been asked ?
how many times has the same navbar question been asked ??

after reading through this, i feel the hack isn't for me, i don't know anything about mIRC or any others,
but i wanted to thank you, nonetheless, for your tireless effort.

thanks.
