FUSCUS~ NERD HELP NEEDED

[instar]

Hey mate, I downloaded a java thing today as part of another program, now im getting this message when i try to log on chat, whats it mean???
help please?
Unable to connect : access denied (java.net.SocketPermission au.ausirc.net resolve)

At a guess, it is trying to phone home and a firewall is blocking it
What is the application and what is it suppossed to do?

I installed "limewire" a music downloader, the java gizmo was ness to run it, but now the java gizmo is playing up with chat. :?

just get winmx and forget abt the java applets

 

[Fuscus]

if you have installed Microsoft SP2 then your firewall may be turned on. try reading here http://www.limewire.com/english/content/firewalls.shtml

Nevermind tho ,i can connect asp chat thru mirc anyway, I just liked the java oneclick for sheer easiness, lol. Thanks for your help mate. Soul, I already use winmix but find it a bit useless, limewire is much better/faster.
