There is little we can do if you have been banned from a network. I suggest you look at the Austnet Contact site and use the most appropriate email - they don't seem to have a specific email address for klined/glined users, so I suggest you use the help@ one.

'Compromised host' usually meant a security flaw has been discovered for some reason. It is possible you're infected with some sort of trojan or GTBot. I suggest you scan your computer with 2-3 virus/trojan scanners and clear out any infected. Read all of this thread for suggestions and good tips on keeping your computer UNcompromised in the future.

You may want to see this thread and http://www.mirc.co.uk/help/conflicts.html too.

Best of luck!
