i have watched a couple of worms videos and i noticed that alla good ropers seem to have a new version of worms? that version have a phone that rings sometimes and a timer on explosives. and they can use the parachute after failing with the rope.. do you guys know what this version is and where you can get it?

Look at the installation & patching tutorials

EDIT: In fact, just download and run this: http://worms.thecybershadow.net/files/WA_update-3.6.26.5_Beta_Installer.exe



And the phone just appears when playing online and you get a message, and the timers are when watching a recorded game, a new feature of the updates.

I do believe Franpa is right, hitting the bottom of a pixel ends your turn, but hitting the side of a pixel (still possible on some ceilings) will not end your turn as long as you don't hit it too fast.

i played online yesterday for the first time, it was kinda fun, but the chat bubble says that you open it by clicking page down, but it didnt work for me. and when you get a message is that a messege that you get from other people thats playing?

A lot of keyboards have 2 page down buttons. Did you press the one on the numpad that is shared with a number? Because the game could interpret that as pressing the number 3, particularly if you have Num Lock on (I'm basing this on my keyboard here).

The phone icon shows that someone has typed as message inside the chat box. It doesn't appear when the chat box is open.

No, PAGE down, not cursor down. It may be called PgDwn or something.
