Pidgin getting "Connection Refused" whenever I connect to IRC server
- by tvanover
On my win 7 x64 machine using pidgin 2.6.3 I cannot connect to any IRC server. I have tried most of the North American servers, as well as my workplace's internal server with no luck. I have tried from work as well as from home but different networks have no effect. I keep getting Unable to Connect: Connection refused.
It work fine 3 weeks ago on this very machine running Win 7 x64. But then I re-imaged, and did not backup my .purple folder. Which I had used for the past 2 years and originally created on a vista install.
I can connect using this install of Pigin to yahoo and msn with no problems. Just not to irc.
Any thoughts?
