I am having troubles lately connecting to some irc servers. I thought the server was down until I tried connecting on a computer on different network and it fired right up. Got home tried it and got the same error I had been getting, Have turned off windows firewall even tried bypassing the router and going directly into the modem, still no connect. I tried a Win98 box and bam connects first try. I am running windows XP Pro SP2. Now it will connect to some servers just not irc.uicn.net The error that comes up in mIRC is "* Unable to connect to server (Software caused connection abort)" I have tried 4 different machines running WinXP Pro SP2 and none can connect to that server. Any help greatly appreciated.

Thanks
