The receiver of the message sees the message in the chatroom with * beside the name (nobody else can see it), It will look like this *<andy>* Hi there!, to respond to a pm follow the above steps.
When it is time to go back to the main chatroom, look to the bottom of the applet (just bellow the black dialogue box) you will see the persons name that you are pming and #aacukchat. Click on #aacukchat to return to the main room, likewise click on the persons name if you wish to return to pm with them.
What or who is @NovaBot?
Don't worry - it's not a spy or something sinister like that! @NovaBot is merely a robot programme the enables the admin of the room to kick out offending people, mute them, warn them & things like set up bad words protection.
How to change your password
You type the following in to the black dialoque box:
/msg nickserv set password new-password
new-password is whatever you wish to set your password to so it would look something like this:
/msg nickserv set password ducky2
