The Ayuni Project: Support
This page contains tech support info related to the Ayuni
Project.
It is maintained by Nimrod (AIM screen name: UncleZzzen, or Pager).
What you need to install in order to participate:
-
Browser:
-
The only browser we fully support is Netscape
4.x.
-
Microsoft Internet Exploder (4.x or 5.x) also works, except for the "fast"
video windows. We tried to solve the problem, but we're still waiting for
support from the guys who wrote the webcam software.
-
Other broswers (NS 3.x, MSIE 3.x, etc.) may be a real pain,
so don't expect support if you use them.
-
Chat:
-
In order to go to the Nablus chat from your browser, you need AOL
Instant Messenger (AIM) version 2.x (version 1.x won't launch from
the page and the browser will give you an error message if yu click on
the Nablus chat icon).

crash on the server sending the video).

close windows you don't use, so next time they'll appear on top.
