Weird. @ is something I'd expect to see on a username to designate operator
privileges. I've checked out the webchat.freenode.net and it's working OK as

I've attached a screenshot (not attaching it to this message to avoid
junking up the list) of what my screen looks like before I hit "Connect" and
it's connected me successfully using the webchat client.
What browser are you using?
