bit slower this time :)

re +mloook, create a file named autoexec.cfg in quake id1
edit it and add +mlook. if you use notepad make sure it's not saved as
autoexec.cfg.txt

re qw connecting to servers , hmm sounds like your connecting to qw servers with
glquake not glqwcl, you shouldn't see anything about demo's with qw
make sure you have qw 2.3 or 2.4 (un released)
try connecting to the servers you can see in "all seeing eye" from qw console
eg contect xxxx.xxx.xxx: aaaa , replace xxx's ip address, aaa's with  port
numbers
