Aye, I can't connect now :-(

FYI, I'm on a small home LAN which uses a gateway/proxy proggy called
Sygate on the server to allow simultaneous Internet access for the
whole LAN.  When BW-Admin is set up as it is currently, it denies
access due to coming in on a "non-standard" port.

There was a little episode about 2 months ago on another server that
put this on and then produced a "Hall of Shame" page supposedly outing
Z-bots but several folks appeared on it (myself included) for this
proxy reason.  Buggered if I can remember where it was though and
therefore who could tell you how to sort it, sorry.

Would appreciate the relevant changes soon cos I'm missing my AQ2 :-)
