it works the same way with the errors before :( it does show in chrome, but has really weird refreshing flickers that look horrible, and still does not allow me to post in IRC.

What kind of internet connection are you behind? I think they might be caching it.

hm... no idea, some really bad wireless thing from a modem, just one step up from Dialup :(

And, it hasn't ever had these problems before in case you're wondering.

Yea, but these problems might be caused by two different versions of OmnomIRC loading at once.

Do you know the name of the company that provides your internet?

DSL? Hmm. I doubt it's router caching problems, then. I have a DSL connection and it transitioned fine, and believe me, they won't give you a fancy router/modem for a cheap DSL connection.

Maybe try another browser? i.e. chrome, FF, IE, opera, and see if it works in them.

He did already.


I think his ISP might be caching it somewhere down the line. You don't have any internet accelerators or anything installed, do you?

Good point, but I seriously doubt the ISP would do that. Caching creates many issues for both clients and Admins.

What could cause OmnomIRC to lag so much since 8 PM yesterday when it was working perfectly for Ashbad before, though?

I think he has tried all browsers, since he has said that before.

Ashbad, can you try it on another computer on the same connection?

Could someone in his family have used his computer while he's away and got a virus? O.O

Perhaps he could try a different OS too, but I guess that's too much trouble.

I dunno. I'm just trying to track down if it's his ISP somewhere or not.

but, on that note, when was the last time you scanned for viruses, ashbad?

Ah ok.

In any case, do you think there would be a solution, including reinstating a copy of the old OmnomIRC just for him (in the alternate member group)?

I run a virus scan every week, I ran one today and I found nothing :(

But, if it would be possible to get an old version of OmnomIRC for me (like about a week old) that would be superb :)
