could anyone help me with a problem i've been having with x-chat aqua (i have x-chat aqua 0.12.0)?
I use it mainly to check out #macrumors, once in a while some other channels on freenode, etc.
when the window opens i type in the usual "/server irc.krono.net" then i do a "/join #macrumors" and my pb freezes (not kernel panic, but like it refuses to respond, I can move around the mouse but everything's frozen, the cursor won't blink) forcing me to do a force restart.
I've deleted *all* the prefs, ran fsck a bunch of times, fixed permissions (holy ****e :p took forever, and fixed the permissions for a zillion folders), deleted the app multiple times...I can't think of anything else I could do...I *absolutely* abhor using bitchx/irssi/snak/ircle/mIRC...

Jane,

according to http://xchataqua.sourceforge.net/

If X-Chat Aqua crashes at startup or when you try to change the font, change your password and try again. You can change it back after that, but you must change it.

you're welcome
