I am running windows Explorer 6.0 on windows xp. It starts by saying-connected to IRC Webmaster 6667 Then it says connected please wait-then it says 1 boatnut erroneus nickname,connection close,and it does not let me in. It does this 3 times and then disconnects

When I hit the link for "Live Chat", it says "Welcome David" and some other stuff, with a link for "Enter Chat".
I get in as "David1". I don't know where the "1" is coming from as that is not me, I don't think. Then I can type with no problem. After about 30 seconds, I get a message on the screen:
--NickServ--You have 40 seconds to comply before your nickname is changed.
Then after 20 seconds:
--NickServ--You have 20 seconds to comply before your nickname is changed.
And of course after another 20 seconds, it says:
--NickServ--Your nickname is now being changed because "David1" is a registered nickname.
***David1 is now known as Guest83041 (or another random number)
The software has changed me from "David1" to "David2" and "David3" also.
So what am I supposed to comply to? This sux!
Oh Yeah-Win98SE/ Internet Explorer 5.5

Chat login ???
I run Windows XP with IE 6.0
Have used the chat befor and worked ok.
Now its ask me to comply (I guess login?) only I have no clue as to how or where this happens.
Then my name gets changed to Guest????.
I am sure Jeff did this so people can't steal anothers registered name in chat, but I think we need some help here Jeff?
