Do you have a chat session active?
yes
Freenode does some kind of port scan when you connect and every so often after as I understand. I get those all the time. Something to do with their blocking bots or unauth'ed servers I guess.
Some IRC servers i see won't let you in if you have an open relay on port 1080 (socks proxy) and maybe 8080 or 3128 (HTTP proxies). It's some sort of security measure on their part to cut back on anonymous ppl's. Or dumb ppls that would have open relays. ---------------------- Eric Bambach Eric@CISU.net ----------------------
