The server you may be trying to connect to might be down. Try connecting to irc.SummitIRC.com port 6667
You can also try a java applet here that should work: http://www.avpod.net/livechat.html
Let me know if these dont work. |

Same thing, it means the server you are trying to connect to is refusing connections. Try another server on that network. |

| check the DNS settings for your connection (be it dial-up, ethernet, whatever) and make sure you can contact the servers listed (a simple ping should suffice) |

| Also make sure your anti-virus software or firewall is not blocking that port. |

This is a dead giveaway that its a DNS error, so that would be the first thing I check |
