I finally got a reply yesterday from one of the ify executives they believe, and I quote, that "the port has a virus, and it has been blocked for all the users, so we cannot re-open it for you since the virus will spread" :lol:If I had to spread a virus couldn't I use the other damn 65535 ports available now who the heck will explain to them what all this means, until I told them that its a chat protocol they believed irc to be a website. Currently I am using mIRC through a proxy for iRC.Is there any software (freeware) for tunneling all traffic on 6667 through say another port 1000. I cannot trust the proxy to be on 24/7 and iRC is really important for me.Now this is a tough try, but anyone willing to host a shell acct for me
