swh,
I am!!! I even logged off, then on again, to see if that worked. At the end of a long day, I tend to sit in front of the TV with a cat on my lap, look at the forums, THEN go into chat. But I can't get into chat when I do that; it tells me I'm not authorised to. But it says at the bottom of the message that I'm logged on!!!!!!!!!!!
I also have to log on again every time I want to post. This is on my laptop, a Toshiba Libretto with Windows 98. I don't know if that's relevant. The logging in before every post doesn't happen on my PC with Windows XP. I don't know about chat on the PC; I only go into chat in the evening, not in my office.
Please will someone get it sorted...or I might demand back the donation I made to the chat room!!!
