I've tried with Stardock Central, and with mIRC... both ways, when i try to connect to irc.strdock.com, port 6667, I get an 'Unable to connect to server' error and in mIRC's case a '(connection timed out)' extended error message. Is there an alternate route to get to the chat channel? I can get to other IRC channels just fine, so mIRC isn't being blocked by my firewall (I've even tried turning it off just in case).

Can anyone help?

Yours,

Ann-Marie
