What is a broadband without IRC ?

Airtel seems to have opened the "closed ports"[/b]

lol .. the closed ports in pc flank's or whatever test u took means that they are open by ur isp but is shown closed bcoz no app on ur pc's using that port .. so actually that ports are kept open by us isp . all the ports shown as "closed" can be used . Besides many irc servers allow secure connections at port 9999 .. try to connect to that tooo .

I have a connection in Bangalore , and IRC is fine here. . But 2 of my friends from Mangalore ( in Karnataka ) are unable to connect to IRC from the last 4-5 months. I dont think they have tried connecting to port 6668, but will tell them to try that out too.
