Can't log in because the new TOS announcement is freezing.
Scroll down the announcement doesn't work, neither do the two buttons. All I can do is quit the app.
This is on a Mac running Panther.
Anyone got any ideas?

Not a mac-head. Grep around ~/library for some configuration file that says "he accepted the TOS" somewhere, use ed(1) to change a 0 to a 1. Play. Should have as much legal force as click-through licences do anyway. Layman's summary of relevant changes in the ToS; consult your attorney for professional equivocation: - If SL is totally down due to unscheduled outage greater than 24 hours (which I don't think has happnend since beta) you'll get a pro rata refund for missed days of access unless Terrorists are responsible.
- You agree not to call or think of SL as a game.
- Your SL inventory and wallet no longer don't have any real world value, but
- you waive any right to sue anyone for loss of that which no longer not has value

You agree not to call or think of SL as a game.I HATE it when something I already do (or don't do) is legislated: makes me wanna go out & break the rule right then, just out of spite. Yeah, yeah: Memory Harker, big bad rebel. Hide your children. Hell, hide your PETS.  But really ... I couldn't THINK of SL as a game if I tried. Because it isn't one, not at all: it is a platform, a persistent and interactive 3-D world that exists only online. Inarguably. Thus have I always considered SL, to myself or out loud, exclusively in language that LL has, coincidentally, stated a preference for. But now there's a rule that says one can't CALL it a game if one wishes to, even on a whim? kk I'll call it a kumquat. Phillip, Robin, Jeska, all you lot: Hell of a fine kumquat you have here, tyvm! Kumquat, kumquat, kumquat, kumquat, kumquat, kumquat, kumquat, kumquat, kumquat, kumquat, kumquat, kumquat, kumquat, kumquat, kumquat, kumquat, kumquat, kumquat, kumquat, kumquat, kumquat, kumquat, kumquat, kumquat, kumquat!  |
