yea this has bin a problem for people for a long time.i dont know what it is but forumotion seem to bin haveing a lot of glitches with the chat box. they are aware of this and have fixed it in the past.but it seems to keep coming back?

if it's really bothering you that much? i would suggest just google chat boxs for forums. you can find a lot of diff free ones to use. some have some pretty cool options it all depends what you go with. i notice more and more people using other chat boxes on there forums lately.
i my self use stickam.com http://xat.com/ and use the forums box at the bottom of the page.

just go to admin panel>Modules>chat-box then (configurations)

thx now i have fix it

Would you tell me how you fixed it? One of our members had that problem last weekend and had to switch servers from firefox to safari to fix it.

It would be helpful to know other ways to do so, so I can help my members should the problem reoccure.

Thank you for your help kirk i have a set of chat rooms on my site that are free but wanted the chat box as well on the main part of my forum
but as its not working that well i think i will remove it again
but thank you anyway
