mIRC help ;)
 
I'm working on using mirc, everytime I setup my servername and try to connect, it says not connected and the mirc options window pops up, what's the deal?

The deal is right there in your own post:

The reason may vary. A partial list of probable reasons are as follows:
  • You have got the wrong server name.
  • You have got the wrong port.
  • Your connection requires login and you have not logged in.
  • Your connection requires login and you have typed in your login credentials wrong.
  • You have not plugged in the network / telephone / coaxial cable.
  • A rat chewed through your network / telephone / coaxial cable.
  • The ATF is about to raid your home and they have cut all your connections off.
  • A terrorist generated a large electromagnetic pulse which has shutdown all telecommunications equipment.
  • You did not pay the bills for your Internet account.
  • Mom decided to set up firewall policies to restrict your activity online.
  • The server is down; try again later.

Bahaha


Any server I try does this, just an example: irc.z irc.org

Using windows xp firewall, not SP2.. A few weeks ago I could connect fine :igor:

take out the space in the address maybe.

protegechris 20th October 2004 14:04

I added the space because together it gets blocked out:

irc.****.org

see?

ctn|chrisw 20th October 2004 15:46

o ic. Well is there an error message in the STATUS WINDOW? It should say connection timed out or something. Make sure you use port 6667

protegechris 20th October 2004 16:31

Fixed :) sorry about that

edit: sort of...

Whenever i'm connecting I get:
* Connect retry #6 irc.****.org (6667)
-
* Firewall: Unable to find firewall address

ctn|chrisw 20th October 2004 17:34

options-->connect-->firewall
firewall support: none
