I too have been having a few problems recently but I edited my
connection script and it seems OK from the few logins that I have made
since, you could try shortening the strings that your program looks for
"ocol:" instead of "protocol:", the program with my setup seemed to be
the program looking for "HELLO" with spaces and returns attatched which
Demon didn't seem to be sending all the time.
