Anyone use it? When I try to connect through a website I use, I get the following error:

Unable to connect : java.security.AccessControlException : access denied (java.net.SocketPermission irc.cigarweekly.com resolve)

just download mirc from (www.mirc.com) and connect manually. these java clients are crap =D

There are likely some changes you could make to your java.policy file to resolve the problem.

Search your c: drive for a file with the name java.policy and add the following:

grant {
// permissions to resolve and connect all sockets
permission java.net.SocketPermission "*", "connect,resolve";
// permissions for RMI when using appletviewer or Java Plug-in
permission java.net.SocketPermission "*:1024-", "accept,connect,listen,resolve";
};

I make no claims about your system security after making this change. There are probably more restrictive settings that would also work, but I'm lazy.

I got it to work but not through the original host site. Guess I'll have to pay after all. Or maybe not.
