Having trouble entering 8WR Chatroom

[Xeph]

I try to log into chat and get this-

[09:18:35] Running lightIRC 1.1 Build 30. Project home: www.lightirc.com
[09:18:36] Connection established. Please wait...
[09:18:36] NOTICE AUTH :*** Please wait while we scan your connection for open proxies...

[09:18:41] [NOTICE Jolly.GeekShed.net]: *** No ident response; username prefixed with ~

Any suggestions?

I went to lightirc.com, and how do I go about "entering their client." I thought maybe the first box on the page that says, "irc.lightirc.com" and has an option to connect would work... but it didn't.

and yeah, I miss old chat.
