You have been SERIOUSLY Misinformed...

It had its own Instant Messenger which stopped working on july 4th 2003...It wasnt even a proper IM, more like a Private Irc Chatroom...Its not that much better than 2.0 imo...It has slightly better Javascript Support and "Some" Java Support.

OUCH!

Go into OPTIONS from the Start Menu and turn on Accept Cookies and you'll be fine...But dont expect to be able to use Yahoo Messenger or any other IM's with Planetweb 3. Yahoo Java Chat works fine thou if thata what yor after. You need to turn Java on throu the Options Menu too if it isnt already turned on. Get to the Options Menu by pressing the Start Button on your Controller then Options...
