    Just curious, but are you on a campus network? or a higher security network? Myself I often get that same error when trying to connect to a public huh or private hub outside of my ISP (in this case University of Vic) or I'll get a connection after a long period of time. Now I know in the case of my ISP they try to block ports, and because of that I have issues connecting.. Now I don't have this error at all when connecting to my own hub inside of the network though. :) Also where are you geographically in accordance with the hub your trying to get too as usually the farther away the hub the less chance of connecting and the greater chance of a slow connection.

    bang on target. i am on a campus network. (uni of manchester). since i can change connection ports in connection settings, i should be able to connect. i don't believe the ISP blocked all of the ports except the most usually used http, ftp, irc & etc. my uni ISP does not have its' own hub. and anyways - i want to connect to hubs that are in my own country (where i originally come from). is there any way i can work around this problem?

    here's the issue. i succesfully download the public list. i chose a hub, connect and...

    [11:36:22] *** Connecting to techgeeks.geekgalaxy.com:1411...

    [11:36:23] *** Connected

    and that's it. it says "connected" every single time, and stops there. the hub-bar is all grean :) as if all hubs are successfully connected, but there is not a single user shown in the users panel.

    0.2.2 apex, win xp, no routers no nothing. tried changing connection settings while zonealarm was turned on. then disabled zonealarm. windows firewall of course disabled. still the same.

    any1 seen this before?... :)
