PS, we meet for chat on most Saturdays too!
I've offered as many ways of getting to Chat as I can find, I hope you will all be there soon!
Please click the mIRC button to download the latest version of mIRC. Or the Pirch button for the latest version of it. If you have any troubles with it please call Rick at work (Mon-Fri 10a-6p) at 1-800-746-9274. Ask for Rick. I usually have time during the day to help talk you through problems. At any other time just e-mail me. Once you download the mIRC program just double-click the setup icon and it will set itself up on your PC. The program will ask you some questions during set up, just answer them...it's really easy.
Once you have set it up, dial into your Internet Service Provider (ISP). After your connection to your ISP is up, minimize your browser (or AOL program) and click on the mIRC icon (it should be on your desktop). Once into mIRC, hit the connect button. When you see the set up options pop up on your screen, find the NewNet servers in the list and select one of them. Then click connect. Type /join #Ffm_Uber_Alles to join the chat room. If you already have mirc set up on your computer then click to connect, click the yellow folder that is the second from the left and repeat the above steps to connect to NewNet

There is a java applet for joining NEWNET here at http://www.newnet.net/newnewnet/jirc/chatme.html . Please follow their instructions.
Ok, yet another way to access the FAHS chat using webTV. Choose Community from your Home page. Choose Chat. Choose Go To. Type IRC then one of the servers listed at the bottom of this page, in the third box type #ffm_uber_alles. Use NEWNET as the server.
Try Ircle for Mac, you can get it at http://www.ircle.com/
A site that helps with set up is: http://www.irchelp.org/irchelp/mac/ircle_setup.html
That's all there is to it. Chat is set up for Friday nights after 8pm Eastern time here in the good ole USA.....if no one is in early keep checking back as sometimes it doesn't get really cranked up 'till late.
See you there, Prost!
