    Dodgy! We can sign into ICQ, but not MSN! Is it a UK problem?

    I use Yahoo messenger. People have been moaning for weeks (Si, Pix, Parksie) that MSN is screwed...

    Probably as it connects to msn.co.uk, which must be broke or something

    I don't really do IRC...too busy. It's better than chat.yahoo.co.uk (the java applet is a bit wanky), that's the only reason I d/l'ed it

    Not sure if they're considered IRC's or not... But there is something called IRC, which is where you connect to a server and join different channels...

    Government is another way to say better…than…you.
    It’s like ice but no pick, a murder charge that won’t stick,
    it’s like a whole other world where you can smell the food,
    but you can’t touch the silverware.
    Huh, what luck. Fascism you can vote for.
    Humph, isn’t that sweet?

    MSN was buggered the last couple of days but it's fine now. I'm hardly ever on ICQ or Yahoo now (not much point considering I might as well be realtime on VB-W )
    I refuse to tie my hands behind my back and hear somebody say "Bend Over, Boy, Because You Have It Coming To You".

    hmm, i'll avoid that then. Apart from the obvious reason, they monitor you if you're somewhere where you can get that sort of thing, I don't want to get busted

    Gee, that really sucks, I guess I'll have to look elsewhere for child porn!
