Ok, I have the ZoneAlarm Security thing installed on my computer. When I try to get onto IRC, it says it is blocking it. Now, I'm not stupid. I have the IRC settings in ZoneAlarm to allow it to run. However it still does not.

This is the message:

* Connecting to xxx.xxx.xxx (6667)
-
-xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx- [ Blocked by Zone Labs Security ]
-
-xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx- [ Blocked by Zone Labs Security ]
-
-xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx- [ Blocked by Zone Labs Security ]
-
* Identd request from xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx
* Identd replied: 2329, 6667 : USERID : UNIX : Yellow
-
* Disconnected

However, there are days when I can get on, or if I restart my computer. What is the issue?

Exactly what does ZA have set for mIRC? Allow it to be a server? What else?

Looks like a bug in ZA. If you have it completely open for mIRC, it shouldn't block anything mIRC does.

open zonealarm and click IM security select settings from the top and click advanced. If the block irc is checked then uncheck it
