					|  |  
					| I'm trying to download a file through MIRC but it won't work!
 The connection is accepted and established but nothing happens. The meter will stay at 0kb and after 2 minutes I get a connection time-out.
 What is prehibiting MIRC from downloading the file???
 I have auto-get switched on, auto-get is not limited to trusted users.
 I have this with every file I try to download.
 Any ideas???
 
 
 
 damn, this always worked for me

					| Go through all the options under DCC. You may have files with certain extensions ignored.

					| no there's nothing ignored and I have this problem with all bots.
I've tried a new install of MIRC on both my workstation and my server. I don't run scripts at the moment...
 Could my router be the problem, should I open and route a certain port to my server running MIRC?
 Can't remember having to do that in the past :confused:

					| dont think it has sth to do with the router, didnt have to configure anything on mine... but with all bots this sounds really strange... using firewall? port blocked?

					| no no firewall and no port blocked?!?!
 As I said, the connection si established but the file never reaches me resulting in a time-out.
 The file will be generated in my Donwloads folder but it stays 0kb...very weird

					| well dcc uses other ports than the usual irc. You can set the port range for dcc in mirc. maybe someone on your side is blocking ports
