An existing connection was forcibly closed by the remote host.

Anyone know what's up with this msg? I get it when I try to connect to the Iburst hub on DC++.
 
There are 2 primary reasons for this message.

Reason 1 is that iburst has fiddled/semi-blocked with our p2p and this is effecting dc++ drastically so you getting this message is no fault of your own.

Reason 2 is more general tho. If you're running a torrent while trying to connect to dc++ you'll generally get this message as too many half-open connections are occurring on your connection.

Unfortunately there's nothing we can do about the iburst p2p thing except moan an awful lot. Hub still works tho you just need to be patient and keep trying to connect.
 
I've been getting that disconnect aswell quite a bit. Im pretty new to the dc++ thing though but havnt yet managed to connected to anyone and download something yet (I tried the whole of yesterday). Jst doesnt seem to want to work. I've read the FAQ till my eyes bleed and even tried that port forwarding stuff but still nothing. Reconnected a million times too with diff IPs aswell.

Am I missing something?
