I'm posting here because I'm having connection problems.

I keep getting "10061 [10061] Connection refused".

Should be ok now.

The gateway program had crashed, again due to people probing the system to try to find open ports.

One day I'll find out what they do to cause the program to stop responding.

Humph. Same thing again. I'd not noticed since I checked this morning. Should be back now.

I don't know what causes it but it does look like a script of some sort that hangs around on the gateway wating for it to reply. Then when it disconnects it leaves the gateway software in a wierd state. The problem is, I waited a whole two weeks in debug mode to see what happened in the software... ...But the swine didn't connect! Argh!
The minute I put the normal version of the software up *bang!*, here it is again!
