roha3000 Posted May 6 Report Share Posted May 6 Shannon, you can install it. Just ask the IT support guy to log you in as administrator so you can put it on. If he isn't a total dick he will probably help you out. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Shannon, God gave you the Lav Rack for a reason. Use it. More than likely at least one of the IT people is a guy. Work the magic, otherwise remain doomed to actually doing your job.

LavenderMenace Posted May 6 Author Report Share Posted May 6 "Sorry, you must either be using an old browser that doesn't support Java, or you have Java support turned off. You must be running at least Netscape 4.7.2 or Internet Explorer 4.5. If you are running new versions of Netscape or IE, and the AIM Express still doesn't show up, making sure you have Java turned on, quit and restart your browser and reload this page. "ummm... i dont know. the browser isnt old, and java support is enabled...oh well.Ron:LOL. there's only one and its a chick Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
phuturephunk Posted May 6 Report Share Posted May 6 Originally posted by joeg http://toc.oscar.aol.com/aimexpress/content.htmldoesn't work???its just java... . . if I do remember correctly there was an issue with Microsoft not enabling the Java VM by default in XP . . I think it's been remedied . . but if your admins want to be real cocksnots about it they can just disallow all java . . . That combined with a restrictive system policy (read: Users get no rights) pretty much destroys any possibility of chat software . . unless someone's figured out how to do it using active X . . .

acura Posted May 6 Report Share Posted May 6 Lav....Why don't you burn it onto a cd and just run it off of that?Before I got into IT, I had the same problem. I burned my AG satelite and Instant messenger onto a cd and used it that way Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
