That usually happens when you have a ping time-out. Your software has noticed this and attempts to reconnect to the server for you. That is why it disconnects.

I take it you're on 56k? If so, then you'll experience this problem more than your usual IRC user.
I'm on 1.5mb 385k ADSL, I usually have a ping time-out at least once per session.
We suffer from ping time-out because our pings suck compared to the server, which is located in the US (AFAIK).

Your MSN promblem sounds fucked. Download the software again and re-install it.
It could also be your screen saver. My pc would hang severely when the screen saver activated. Fixed that by setting it to only show a blank screen when activated. Also check the power saving settings, sometimes these settings can screw you around a little.

Good luck! beer:[/quote:84d50]

Hello. Nah, I be on DSL......The reason I think it's a software issue, and not just a regular ping time-out, is because it never used to happen like this on my old set-up (Before my new pc, and before the network set-up I have - Which jew actually helped me set-up if you remember. happy: )...

Regardless, I guess I can deal with it. I just like to be able to idle every now and then without being dropped out of the IRC channels.

Now I must go re-install MSN.

Thx heaps m8.
