O.P. Severe chat disappointment and a program suggestion
I used to be on this forum quite a bit right when plus! 2 came out. So I decided to com back, specifically in the chat because I had a suggestion. Lovely folks/scripts there. I joined as entr0py. Why? That's the sn I've used on several forums and chats for the last year or so. I'm not whoever was banned. Please unban me! Want proof? Go to short-media.com/forum and shoot me a pm. I hope to be unbanned sometime, even if i need to use another sn, seeing as how they kindly ip/permabanned me.

Anyways, for my suggestion. Ever noticed how msn messenger opens ALL links in IE, due to them both being microsoft products? I think plus! can and should solve this. I use Maxthon as my browser, and it'd be nice if messenger could open links in said browser. Maybe have an option to use the *real* default browser, or at least a list to choose from? Just my 2 cents. Thanks and i hope to chat soon....:)

StuffPlug-NG makes the links open in your default browser

LOL. No no, you joined right as we were being attacked by bots, so you got G:Lined along with the bots. Had nothing to do with old user names or anything. Come on back. You've been unbanned.

Sorry again, but you joined at a bad time. I think Vazza was banned as well, both of you have been unbanned, the bots are still banned though :p

You guys are quick! but...it has an option to open Hotmail links apparently, but regular links in chats don't seem to open with my default browser...

//EDIT: Alright, thanks DX. All i saw was something about "was like entr0py or somethin along those lines. he banned vazza, too" and i assumed I was targeted...sorry for the confusion 8-) Thanks for unbanning me :)

They don't, that's the thing. They'll open in IE regardless of what I set as my default (MyIE2, Firefox, Maxthon...doesn't matter).

The open hotmail inbox with default browser feature in Stuff Plug NG will not work with Maxthon (or MyIE2). I don't know why, but it does work with other browsers such as firefox.

Oh lovely. I have such wonderful luck. Of the tens of browsers out there, I choose the one that's fubar'd. Thanks for letting me know at least :)
