I believe you actually mean not Ruslan here :).

So, here is how it going. I installed the djgame2 port, run it.
I get a window that asking me to login. I have no account so I'm 
clicking register instead. This directs me to 
http://www.bluedj.com/register.php that isn't working.

Ok, lets close the login window and just try to select some games. 
Clicking on "General Chess Games", getting "getting game list" window 
with subsequent "connection timed out" window.

Alas, let's clean not-working stuff out.
