Connection Errors
Posted: Mon Apr 09, 2012 8:27 pm
Hi Everyone-
I have a connection issue which is driving me a bit batty.
I've included snippets from my connection log for both my home network and a public network at the end og this post
I run Ice Chat on my laptop and desktop, I also use a Mac that runs Calliquoy, and I run Limechat on my iPhone
A little while ago all four stopped connecting to Geekshed.
I've tried to connect to Geekshed with all 4 devices on 3 separate networks(Home, Phone, and Public WiFi).
I can't connect to any other IRC Servers either
I haven't changed any of my IceChat or server settings and I checked them and they look ok.
I run MBAM Pro, SAS Pro, MSE and Windows Firewall. I know it is not always advised to run multiple AV's however I have run this configuration for a long time without any issues. MBAM keeps flagging the IP addresses for Geekshed as malicious. So, I tried these steps:
-Turned off MBAM website protection, tried again and got the same result.
-I tried again with MBAM completely closed with the same result.
-I then tried disabling real time protection entirely with the same result.
-I went through and turned off all my AV/FW's one at a time with the same results. Then I turned them all off at once with the same results.
I thought it might have had something to do with recent Windows updates so I system restored
back and still had the same problem(I then restored back to the original state)
Any help anyone could provide would be very much appreciated.
