Question about mIRC...

[Mean MrMustard]

At first I couldn't use DCC Send. I would try and it would disconnect me. After going throught the mIRC FAQ, I changed some settings and now I can DCC Send. However, now can send a file but a few seconds later I get disconnected again. WTH?

At first, I thought my ISP had that port blocked, but if it was blocked it wouldn't have let me send the file in the first place. So why am I getting disconnected AFTER I send the file? Any help is appreciated.

EDIT: Since I changed the settings it says my local host is my local IP address of the comp on my LAN. Shouldn't it be my public IP address?

DCC doesn't play well through NAT.

Yeah, I used to have problems with DCC behind my Linksys router with NAT. So I just stuck my computer in the DMZ when I used it.
