Ashworth.. Are you a loyal bitchx user or are you willing to use webchat Irc? I wish they had such magical things when 
I was on Irc.. We were stuck trying to make winsock functiom so mIRC would work.. ;)

We had an IBM Proventia IPS system on one network that I was
responsible for. Despite our best configuration efforts it insisted on
sending TCP resets to both sides with the counterparties IP address in
the source whenever we tried SASL. I never did get a firm answer as to
why. Perhaps it's a similar issue?
