mIRC Issues

[tkelz448]

Alright....so I started up mIRC the other day and input all the server / port information into it, went to connect. Then it just started spamming the trying to connect, disconnect thing over and over. Something to do with CBL blocking me or something or other?? I actually can't recall specifics (I'm at work right now). So if anyone knows anything about this, please PM me or respond here, I would love to know so I can be one of the cool kids and start up on IRC

kind of hard to help you without the specifics!

I can't remember specifics from here, I'm at work at the moment. 12 hours shifts get really boring so figured I'd see if anyone else heard of this issue.

next chance you get ... log in from the Website .. and try mIRC ... someone should be able to walk you through

Alright, I'll give it a shot when I get home.

If it is continually trying to connect, it would appear that mIRC either cannot establish a connection to the remote server or that it cannot make a connection out of your machine. Check your firewall settings first and ensure that mIRC is set as an exception.

And now I feel dumb for not remembering to check that >.< Jesus, this is what happens when you work IT in the army...and they decide to make you do a different job....like sitting around doing nothing so I can run out of forum posts to read x_x
