* Connecting to Global (6667)
-
* Unable to resolve server
-
* Connect retry #1 Global (6667)
-
* Unable to resolve server
-
* Connect retry #2 Global (6667)
-
* Unable to resolve server
-
* Connect retry #3 Global (6667)
-
* Unable to resolve server
-
* Connect retry #4 Global (6667)

* Connect cancelled
^^Then I just disconnected.
Anyways I need help on how to fix this. Cough, with detailed directions please.

Nothing. You just have to wait 5 seconds at the register screen.

You dont have to use Mirc anyway
there are multiple irc clients find one you like
and downloading a keygen is pretty much not a good idea legally
because its theft (my reasoning your supposed to pay for a key so using a keygen is taking a key without paying for it)

ty kilo.

one more question.......
I keep disconnecting from irc when I'm not around
I just want to idle in my channel(ab-t,ab) but it disconnects.
Any way i can make it so i stay on all the time????
example:darkness is always on, he idles, so why cant I?
I don't have the on line timer one btw.

Under options go to Connect then to Options and there should be a check box that says reconnect on disconnect.

Could be a variety of things: software malfunction, ping timeout, no route to host and the list goes on and on.
