Probably something lots of you already know, but ray IM FREE works perfectly with Opera!
I've wasted hours on end trying to get it to work in FireFox and it just wont work, it works okay in IE but who wants to use that decrepid old lump. It just dawned on me not 20 minutes ago to try out another browser, see if it works, I knew it worked in IE but like I say, who wants to use IE anymore.
So I downloaded Opera and installed it, first time I tried contacting myself from IE to Opera it worked just like that, no hanging there with the dreaded 'loading' thingy.
There is a small thing about Opera and this software solution, Opera doesn't much like the carriage return in the text editor, not a big problem as you only have to use the old fashioned shift and carriage return, if you don't you get a new line at the very beginning ogf the topic, go figure eh!
Anyway, just thought it might help some folk out who are still struggling to get ray IM working, Opera is your answer, FireFox just wont do it, at least not on the free version anyway, be sure to let all your members know to go over to Opera for your site.
Peace and good will to you all,
