My experience would be not only do they not know, they don't care.

I think because they don't perceive it as a fault. Remember they intended to implement a system to monitor and block IRC commands.

tech said he had relayed all the info to the engineers today, and has verified its nothing on my computer which is the issue, he said it should be fixed within "4-5" working days, and i should hear from them within that time, i guess only time will tell frown

You really have to admire them for there responce, they read what you say, likely pasting it back changing things from "i have this problem" to "you have this problem"

They then make a completely lame statment like suggesting its not there problem, and you should contact someone else who it really really isnt related to them.

Keep the email, and refuse to pay your bill, stating that the helpdesk support supplied as part of your service was being deliberitly missleading and had the intention to attempt to cost you money by suggesting you contact your pc vendor for support on a matter unrealted to them.

Actually dont bother about it, just send BT a cancellation Email, stating due to service failure of BT you are terminating service and going with a reliable company, and you well be telling everyone you ever meet what a load of dirt bags they are for lying to you, and thank you have a nice day. smile

I heard that if you encrypt your connection using ssl then you can do dcc chats and transfers etc.
Ive tried this and it I cant manage to get mirc to use ssl.
The weird thing is that I have been happily xdccing for ages and tried to dcc the other day using an fserve but it didnt work as detailed before hand.
Thanks
