Hey Cade,

I'm using KVIrc and that is actually what I have entered as my server. It 
resolves the IP to 205.213.108.105.

When I go to connect to the server I get the following error messages:
[Socket error] Connection refused by remote host
Connection attempt failed (irc.freenode.net)

What do you use for IRC, I also have KSirc but KVIrc looked more feature rich.

Thanks for the prompt reply!
