 Hi

  When you try to connect do you 
get any feed back of quake3? for instance
does it mention protocol? as i think 
last time i checked there still using
1.30 and if you have the latest ver its 1.31 ? 
I would sugest trying another server untill
the gamesmasters update the servers.


 Alas i dont ahve a copy of quake3 on my 
machine right now but last time i check 
they were running a older ver.
