UBCD should have the memtest86 on it. Under something like memory management.

Yeah terrs problem is unique. Unsure what could be the cause. If we could weed out all the possibilities we could have a better idea.

As for wom. If the server has wom direct it would authenticate if I'm not mistaken.

Yeah... refer to my earlier post...

As for immediate action. Use Wom and don't use the search function unless you have a powerful computer. What happens is the search function tries to sort through that giant list of faux servers, which takes a lot of computing power. My guess, the wom client doesn't have a very good sort method, uses a lot of resources, and locks up your computer. So if you don't search and just scroll... you should be fine.

What brand of video card do you have? Drivers up to date? Seems like ATI tend to break the mold.

What size world does it have textual issues? (ie. 64x64x64 all the way up to 1024x1024x1024)

Do you also play SMP? (might try removing the minecraft folder in %appdata%/roaming/ See if that has any effect)

As you suggested, it could be ram. I assume you are running it on windows. If you can try to get hold of memtest86 and run it. Often linux distributions have memtest86 included. You might also check the Ultimate boot cd. Everyone should have one of those :)

Don't be rude.
He's a coder in python that wants to open a server as far as I know.

That's me. Hmm I should have made it a little more clear as to why this effects wom. And now I actually have a lot more information. :)

Turns out there is a program someone made that sends faux heartbeats to the mc.net classic server list. Everyones internet can support up to 65535 ports. We assume there are at least 5 "hackers" using this program to over populate the mc.net server list, which causes all sorts of problems. A large list, means long sort times.

aaaand I just read the first post.... I guess this is what happens when you have 3 forums up and all of the problems start with "wom is having issues."

Well.... then.. I feel real smart.

waylay: This is now a fyi thread........

So now you know why wom is having issues, and mc.net doesn't load it's classic server list.

How long did this take you, good sir?
To write up that email? Probably 10 minutes or so.

The idea is not to worry about whether or not this fits under the precise correct category, but rather to bring it to their attentions. If we sit by, we will accomplish nothing and it will continue to be a problem. Be active!
