	Can't join chat from mIRC Put an end to popups!

When I try to connect, I get this msg:

	Suffering from ads?

Well, try checking your system for trojans for a start .

I know for sure, that I don't have some Trojan on my machine... (already checked)

This might help. Found it through google searching the phrase "You match the pattern of a known trojan".

The original page was gone, but fortunately the cached page had the following info on it:

quote: Trojan Error You get this error message when trying to connect? Closing Link: 0.0.0.0 (You match the pattern of a known trojan, please check your system.) * Disconnected This means your username (realname) and your ident@ matches in capital letters. By changing one this will fix the error and allow you to login properly. johndoe is JOHNDOE@user.novernet.com * JOHNDOE johndoe has identified for this nick johndoe on #novernet johndoe using ghost.ny.us.novernet.com Novernet's OC-12 Ghost Server johndoe End of /WHOIS list.

The following link also provides a similar answer, but indicts that when the nick looks like a random string, it can sometime be misidentified as a trojan. "ADG" certainly qualifies as under that criterion.
