Common Questions About the GlobalChat ROOMS Plug-in

General Info

The GlobalChat Rooms chat product has 4 optional chat clients. The GlobalChat plug-in (formerly known as the "ichat" plug-in) is only one of 4 options. The others are:

  • Javalite,
  • Java, and
  • HTML chat clients
AOL? Use AOL to establish your dial-up connection to the Internet, then launch another browser and use the appropriate GlobalChat plug-in for that browser (see below).
WebTV? Use the HTML chat client that is available at most ROOMS enabled sites.
Behind a firewall? If you are behind a firewall, you will only be able to use the Javalite and HTML chat client options, not the plug-in or Java client.
Macintosh? Use the Javalite, Java, or HTML client options. We do have an older Mac plug-in available below that you can try, but we do not support this product.
Netscape 6.x? There is not a plug-in for version 6.x or above Netscape browsers. You should use the Javalite or HTML client options.
