Whenever i try to connect to irc.msgplus.net (through HydraIRC), Sygate pops-up and give's me an alert.



Now the IP adrs given by Sygate is the same that HydraIRC is trying to reach the Plus! IRC server with.



And then i can't connet to any channel or whatsoever. I'm not sure why, but this only happends with the Plus! IRC server, not with any other. Anyone have an idea on why the Plus! server is trying to scan some ports ?

Thx

It's the identd getting blocked (for more info, google identd).. or probably when the server is portscanning you to check for proxies..

but how come it only does it for this server and not any other?

You sure it's the only one?

Try connecting to irc.efnet.org or so.

yup i can connect to any channel on that one and i can also connect to #devart on irc.deviantart.com

Maybe because those servers don't run an anti-proxy lookup shizzle.

And I quote the MOTD

- Upon connecting to this server, you agree to be scanned for an insecure (open)
- proxy. If you see a connection on port 23, 1080, 3128 or 8080 shortly,
- please disregard it, as it is the detector in action.

alrighty then, now i imagine that the Plus! irc server's Ip adrs is always the same ? If so i'll just "safe" that adrs in Sygate

Yes it is.. just add it and it should work.
