Will look later.

Re Active List, I am not convinced that the program is particularly unstable and proved to be more reliable than the ordinary ICQ rooms for last nights chats - in fact the only problem that I am aware of is that bth Nancy and LEJ were unable to join the list and I am looking into that. Otherwise, it worked well for the session and the usual problems involving the need for invites, people not seeing one another and getting booted for no apparrent reason were all iliminnated. Although nobody else has suceeded in hosting my list, I fell that AL is stable overall and that the bulk of the remaining prblems are related to my ISP disconnecting me after 3 hours which doesn't put me in a good position to attempt to host anything although as I did last night, I shut dwn and restarted 15 mins befre MCR to ensure there were in problems on that issuse.

I would certainly be interested to know what else is on offer, particularly if a MC develped room is imminent.
