I never had a problem clicking on links in chat, or right clicking on a user name and viewing their page etc. Now ever since I reformatted my computer I cannot do any of this. All my settings are the same. Any help would be great. |

Need a small short-term loan?
Ask benstylus. |

this is probably not true
There are a couple choices for Java, Sun's or Microsoft's (old). Sun's is probably better.
I really don't know what's wrong. It's working for most people. So, I would assume you just need to set your computer up some way to make it right. Changing or re-installing Java is worth a shot. I'd install Sun's Java, if you haven't already. |

I tried all that and still nothing. You said most people, so I'm assuming others are having the same problem? |

No recent reports, but some people have said in the past that they can't get java chat to work... we tend to assume either they have behind some firewall that blocks the ports, or their java installation isn't right. But, usually, they say it doesn't work at all. You're just saying the links don't work.
I don't think anyone has reported the links don't work before. |

Is your browser blocking pop-ups? |

Mine is (blocking pop-ups that is), but the chat still works. |

yeah, that's a good point, links would open in a new page, so that may seem like a pop-up to a blocker... try enabling pop-ups for gametz.com ... |
