perhaps I am doing something wrong, but when I use the search feature of the forums, it ends up taking forever and then takes me to an error page.

I did a simply search for "iChat" at the top of the forum...
It continued on for about an hour... telling me there were 50 hits... but there is no place to click to "stop" the search and take me to the results... Does one have to wait until the search is completely done?

Not very convenient. Probably why we see so many of the same questions...

It'll be another few months, since they haven't even released the software yet, but that'll be a *great* upgrade when we get it in. Stay tuned... </STRONG>

Speaking of which, Infopop just released UBB 6.3.0 in the last few days, so upgrades should be coming in the next 4-6 weeks (we usually wait for a few of the inevitable bug fix releases, so we'll likely wait for 6.3.2 or 6.3.3 or so). But soon!

Thanks for the info...

Out of curiousity, if I wanted to add UBB to my personal website, how much would I expect it to cost me? Just wondering....
