AmIRC getting started????????
Can anyone please help me i have downloaded AmIRC v3.5 from vaporware.com i have installed it ok on the amiga now the thing is i am not able to connect to any of the servers in the list???
Does anyone still use this for chatting online????? I originally wanted to use icq on the amiga (STRICQ) which i did download and unpack but not sure how to get it up and running there is not an auto installer with STRICQ (not that i can see) So i have opted for AmIRC to try out |

check www.efnet.org, www.undernet.org or whatever-net-you-like.org It should work if you get the right server ... (pick a server from your country, then it should work, does for me atleast ..)

havent tried that bastard for a long time, but you might want to consider the ultra-lite GT-ICQ

Can i use the icq lite on amiga?
Hi Akira i have an icq account already on the pc.I am wanting to use an icq clone on the amiga.
I don't think you can use the icq lite on the amiga?????????? I am going to try jabberwocky as this is supposed to support icq and msn i have been told??????????? AmIRC is cool on the amiga but cuts off after 30 mins and it seems a bit too much £20.00 to get the full regged version. I am only able to use AmIRC with abime.net I need some more servers to add to it before i consider paying money for it I have AOL Messenger on the amiga and thats ok |

cheers retroman:)
Cheers Retroman i am using blackIRC and it's cool
It's even better than AmIRC there is more servers as default to connect to other than abime.net which i will be adding. Would'nt mind a webcam to use on the amiga I have downloaded the jabberwocky and installed but having problem starting it???when i click on the jabberwocky light bulb to start a window appears at the top saying cannot created mui application! I have mui3.8 installed and is ok so i don't know about jabber if i will get that going and stricq i am not so sure but the ones i have running is AmIRC ,BlackIRC and AOL'S Messenger (but no buddies in the aol list) Right i am off now to have some chat fun on the amiga bye for now |
