aight, so I got mozilla firefox cuz I was tired of all that bullshit spyware with IE. Now I'm using the packetnews website for IRC, and usually with IE, you just click a pack number and then hit ctnrl V to paste it into IRC. that doesn't seem to work with Mozilla firefox. or do I have something configured wrong.

I use firefox too, I like how you can have different tabs :o
-
YE I started using it also, about the tabs, how do i open the link in a tab, instead of a new window
-
right click the link, and choose open in new tab

That's almost the only thing you can't do with FireFox..
The bastards on packetnews didn't follow W3 web-standard, but used a script that only works with IE..
Microsoft only cares about the standards they came up with themselves.. ::)
Use DCCAssist though, that's easier..

right click the link, and choose open in new tab
or if you have a rollerball on your mouse, click it with that, it will open the link in a new tab.

damn, sucks that don't work with firefox. Jome, do you ever have any problems with dcc assist? Like sometimes I click the things to download and it just says waiting. but then if I do it through packetnews and paste it, it will d/l automatically.

Nah, never.. just one time when I forgot to restart after updating it..
Make sure to have the newest version of mirc, and newest version of DCCAssist (1.72).
There could be other reasons as well..
"Requested" <-- If this keeps looping, it means that queue is full, and it keeps re-requesting..
"Queue full" <-- A lot of people want it, and if it never queues, it's a slow ass bot.
"Waiting" <-- The bot is offline, the transfer failed, or it's waiting to re-request, or the bot is set to "away", or you've been blocked for requesting too much..
"Failed" <-- Umm yeah.
"Connection failed/timed out" <-- Yup.
I never think it's DCCAssist fault though..
