Note to Windows Vista and Internet Explorer 7.0 users:
If an error occurs during connection, or black windows appears, resolve this by adding chessanytime to the list of trusted sites:
1. Open Internet Explorer and go to Tools-Internet Options-Security
2. Click the "Security" tab and choose the "Trusted Sites" icon.
3. Then click on the button "Sites". A window will open, where you can add any sites that you wish to be in the Trusted zone. Be sure to remove the check by the entry "Require server verification (https:)...."
4. Enter the site url: "http://www.chessanytime.com" in the line provided. Site URLs can be typed in directly or entered by copying and pasting. A shortcut method of copying and pasting an URL from the IE address bar is to use the keyboard command ALT+D to select the Web address and then use CTRL+C to copy it to the Windows Clipboard. Then right-click in the space under "Add this Web site to the zone" and choose "Paste" from the context menu. The example below shows the NY Times site being added. Note that it is not an https site and that the appropriate box is unchecked. After entering a site click the "Add" button.
5. Click on button "ok".
6. Close Internet Explorer and re-open chessanytime web page.

What is timeseal ?
Timeseal is a program that has been developed to improve chess on internet. Netlag often causes players to lose valuable seconds or even minutes on their chess clocks.
Transmission time is counted against you, unless the chess server can tell exactly when information is transmitted.
What timeseal does is record your thinking time, so that transmission time is not counted against you.
Timeseal will not prevent netlag but it makes the games fairer when lag occurs.
