IRC Conectivity

[Kate]

Would really love to, Kana. I can't download nothing! I got lucky with DFO. However, my brother made such a big deal about it, I can't download anything anymore.

Go to: http://portableapps.com/ the applications on this website are made to be carried on a flash drive and do not actually need to install to be basically fully usable versions of applications. Once the file from the website is downloaded to a flash drive, or even a hard drive (This is all hoping that you can get that downloaded, which you might be able to with your restricted permissions) you just double click it and tell it where to extract. Once you choose the place, it extracts and there you go. A full application that you can use without a full install. :D

If you can't download the file from your home computer, try going to your local public library and downloading it to a flash drive from there.

Here's the direct link to the one I use (Jubi uses it too, unless he's started using another one): http://portableapps.com/apps/internet/pchat_portable
I even use this for my IRC client. Not because I don't have permissions on my computer, but because I don't want all that space taken up by mIRC or whatever.

Hope this was helpful

Unfortunately I have no control over the IRC client itself. The IRC chatbox on the site is an ifame. For those less in the know, an iframe is basically a webpage within a webpage. The IRC client is not our creation, and isn't hosted on our server, so my hands are tied.

The webchat was never intended to be a replacement for IRC clients, just an easy way to get into the IRC for new users. I would highly suggest using Trillian or mIRC.

Tell your brother to quit being a flake. You share a connection, there's no reason why you shouldn't be allowed to download stuff too - he can't expect flawless, lag-less gameplay 24/7 (assuming he's a gamer, as that's the main reason people whine about lag spikes). Don't spoil your bro. :P
