Ok. I take it that you're on a network with other computers... lol. Have you asked your Network Administrator? Did you type in the correct IP address? (They change very often)

So you are NOT connected to any other computers..... If you are then your home network is not setup properly....

Ok. I just thought more about it, and I don't think it's possible for you to send a message to someone else unless you are in a netowork with them. If you want to chat with someone from another computer (not connected to yours), then use AIM, or Yahoo! Messanger. Both are FREE, and easy to use. ( I use 'em)

You and your friends would benefit from learning about and using IRC clients.
If you want to use those soggy 'instant message' clients, Yahoo and MSN are the least obnoxious. Avoid AOL Idiot Messenger.
