it means your chat script is expecting to receive "CONNECT" from the other end but isn't getting it within your timeout period. So guesses: 1) their end is slow sometimes, try increasing your timeout 2) their end is stuffed and doesn't always reply with "connect" it may be something else ocassionally (like "protocol" etc etc), hopefully turning on debugging will show this up and you can pick another word that is returned consistently to wait for.
