I had same problem.I bet you are using router or firewall...If you are using firewall. then put it off, or use telnet...

Did you try to

Code: Select all

/ctcp bot chat

to make the bot initiate the dcc-chat. Then you should be able to establish that chat even if you're behind a nat-gateway (assuming you route inside connections to ports 1024-5000 to the internet)

im not using a router and the internet provider keeps telling me they dont use a firewall, Windows XP'x firewall is set off and when i try to get internet security checup they tell me my isp is not right i also tried /ctcp yeah and thatw hen it closes me down as soon as it opens.

Maybe try telnet to your localhost ? It should work 100% ...

im not sure how that works, im just a user of the bot not the owner, i had access to the bot for months without any problem, then suddenly it started doing that to me and another user, who just gave up. i talked to the internet provider and they told me my ISP changes constantly so that might be the why. what is strange that if it has been always a changing ISP then how comes i had acces for months and just recently the bot started to react to it .

Your username may also have changed. The bot owner needs to fix up your hostmask.

ok the problem got fixed, we changed the ports in the bot and mi mirc and that did it, thanx everyone.
