This is a shot in the dark, but do you have "block pop-up windows" enabled? If so, disable that, and see what you get.

I tried, but it made no difference, all I get is the Java log with the two arrows around the coffee cup.

Next, after repairing permissions, I would run Software Update to see if everything is current.

Then, I'd download the latest version of Firefox to see if a different browser worked.

I don't have a good answer for you, but I'm glad it works. I've had problems with some sites acting weird in Safari. They run in Firefox. There must be a reason, but I don't know why.

Papa Jack just for the heck of it go into prefferences in Safari and see if Java is enabled, I have no problems going into your chat room using Safari. It will be in the security tab.
