Everytime I try to get something through DCC Get, I get the DCC pending message, as well as an error saying it was unable to connect. Is it a firewall issue? I've tried turning off my firewall, and nothing changes.
I'm using my college's network via ethernet cable in the dormroom, btw. So I have a stable internet connection.

Any suggestions on what the problem could be?

p.s. I did read ParaBrat's post, and tried everything in there.
