Hey folks,

Having trouble running the client on this laptop, wondering if any of you can help.

I'm running Windows XP.

When I try to load it up, it comes up with:

System is Offline and the application does not specify </offline-allowed/>

JNLPException[category: Download Error : Exception: null : LaunchDesc: null ]

Thanks.

You have java?

If that's not it, sounds like a permissions issue, afraid I would not know how to set that.....

You will need to download the client again and the patch, it is easy to find on the internet. But i would recommend you create new blackbox team and play there. There is a new client with the latest set of rules and it is really really good. Just search for javabowl client and it will probably be the first web site listed on google

Also do you have a firewall? If it is zonealarm uninstall it. It is evil.
