The webclient is having a lot of problems, you can still get in with a standalone IRC client such as ChatZilla if you use FireFox.

Just click irc://irc.freenode.net/knightrider" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false; or enter it into FireFox if you have ChatZilla. If you use another IRC program then you just have to add what network you want to join and then type in /join #knightrider .

That link appears to be dead.

IRC does work. If you don't have your browser set up to intercept the irc:// links then it won't work. I use Virc. I too hope that the irc link gets fixed before the party. :) If not, then we'll just chat in here in Neil's normal episode thread and then after the show in the New Year's Eve Party thread I'll start.

Works fine for me, do you use FireFox? Did you download the ChatZilla add-on?

.... FireFox is a popular internet browser and IMO superior to Internet Explorer... If you don't use it then you can always download another IRC client, they're easy to find.

I'm using chatzilla in Firefox right now, or you can get an IRC client.
