    What browser and version are you using? Also, what operating system and version? If at all possible try upgrading to the newest browser possible. Could possibly be caused by a corrupted browser files? It’s hard to say for sure.

    Hmmm possibly a firewall could cause this also by not allowing the server to ping your connection to make sure it’s alive. Are you using a firewall? I’m just guessing as to the possible causes…

    I’m glad you like the chat room

    I would try upgrading your browser as there have been many bug fixes since 5.5 also you may want to check for windows updates as well. You may also have to download the java plugin from sun microsystems as well. I’ll get an url and post it here. The url is elsewhere around here too but I’ll have to hunt for it.
