stuck at work

[Siviak]

ok so I am stuck at work and I am thinking that there must be a decent browser based irc client that I can use to pass the time that I spend relearning all of the crap that I have in the past few years ..... so if any of you know of one please lemme know

thanx from boredom,
Siviak

ICQ has a web based client called ICQ2GO. Go here:

http://www.icqlite.com

and the info is on the right side. It even works through firewalls!

hey man.. it's not that I don't thank you for the help.. but I am at work.. IE no downloads.. no installs... got anything else for me?

[converge]

you may be interested in JWIRC... assuming you can accept java stuff

[astcell]

How about the NET SEND command from the command line? :p Actually ICQ lite is all online, I don't think you install anything.

that also asks me if I would like to D/L the program... this system that I am on right now is closley monitered.... so I can't/shouldn't/wont D/L or install anything right now.. and I still can't find anything that will lead me to ef-net...... you know what that means folks..... if I can't find something else that just mean many many many many many many, rambling posts from me.. then I get accused of being a post whore... then I gotta kill somone.. then I goto jail.. then i can only repeat the entire process because I am sure that they wont let me D/L or install anything in CCDC (thats Clark County Dention Center for those of yuo at home).. so you can all see the mess that I am in


please help your local non-post-whore SE

hrmm

What about a java ssh applet, and connecting into a linux box with BitchX? I'm sure you've got a friend somewhere that'll set it up for you.

it sounds like java/activex is out of the question for him

[blackwave]

Siviak, sounds like you need to go old-school... there are still a bunch of fun telnetable bbses out there full of chat and mud... unless your admins removed telnet from your system you should be golden. nothing to download, no trace other than going in the clear.

I believe you're looking for something along the lines of CGI-IRC:

http://cgiirc.sourceforge.net/

You will, of course, need access to a web server that will allow you to run CGIs in order to use this. It works quite well with virtually every browser I've tried, but has a number of excellent Internet Explorer specific enhancements.

I'm not sure I'd put that on a box you intend to keep secure or anything having information of any value on it.

Do you have any specific concerns with CGI-IRC? If so I'd like to hear them. Although I don't use it myself, I have a number of friends who use it regularly.

Furthermore, I see no reason why it can't be properly jailed with Apache's suexec.
