Banned from furnet?

[Kanic]

EDIT: Problem resolved. Thanks for any assitance :3

I went to log into Furnet today on mIRC. However, as I was about to login, it disconnected me and gave me this message "Your IP is listed in the DroneBL"

It gave me a link, and when I went to it, it told me that I was running an insecure SOCKS server on three seperate occasions. Once on March 1st this year, the 3rd, and the 5th. This is confusing me because I don't run any kind of server at all here at home. Any ideas of what's going on?

Someone must have reported you for not acting murry enough

If someone else had that IP before you, then that would explain it.
Though I don't exactly have confidence in FurNet's administration given the problems already present..

Kanic, what was the solution?

what happened is that some dumbass banned a whole range to handle one user I'm sure

That happened to me when I tried to join one channel, actually - The ENTIRE Rogers hostmask was banned, effectively removing half of Canada from the room.
