We set my sis up to use IRC when she was at my place(with her laptop)...now at hers, she cannot log on! This is the message she gets
Unable to connect : java.net.NoRouteToHostException : No route to host: connect
any ideas?

She's probably using a firewall that blocks the required ports for IRC.
Or another protection software.

I tried to go back into IRC after being away for so long, but with this new computer I just get this error:
Unable to connect : java.net.SocketException : Software caused connection abort:
Any help would be appreciated. Thanks.

P.S. I tried redownloading and turning off my firewall, but XP Professional's firewall has a mind of it's own.

It is not the firewall...I think her connection is to slow...she has dialup and I use wireless. She brought her laptop down here and it connected fine...
Sparkle...Try updating your JAVA? I don't know really :p
