Not Working On Tiger 10.4.10

Feedback Type: Commentary

Contributed by: Sophya Wednesday, October 24 2007 @ 12:06 PM PDT

Product Platform: MacOSX

Used Product For: Less than a month

I made attempts to launch the Hotline client from a tracker-tracker.com file search web page with the following three web browsers, and got these three error messages:

Internet Explorer 5.2.3 = This program does not support the protocol for accessing 'hotline:12.34.56.78.5500'.

Camino 1.5.2 = 'hotline is not a registered protocol'.

Safari 2.0.4 = 'Safari can't open "hotline:12.34.56.78:5500" because Mac OS X doesn't recognize Internet addresses starting with "hotline:".'

I am using More Internet 1.2 on an older G4 running Tiger 10.4.10. In the More Internet prefs pane, I added "hotline", (without the quotes), as the protocol, and then navigated and selected my Hotline client clone.

Am I doing something wrong, or does More Internet simply no longer work, or at least not with Tiger, or perhaps not with the Hotline protocol? Some answers would be appreciated.

Thanks!

Help with More Internet - u2hmtmkmkm

Someone please help me. This is all doing my head in.

I uninstalled Safari from my Mac because I wanted to use Firefox as the default browser for when I check my hotmail from Windows Live Messenger but now when I click the mail button in Messenger, it opens up a pop up of TextEdit. How do I make Firefox the default program for hotmail? I can't figure out how to do it in More Internet.

Can someone please help me? I'm going insane trying to figure it out

Thanks in advance,
Joe
