can't manage to get IRC running

Hi all,

i'd like to use IRC but it don't work on my PC behind the WL500g.
I have already searched this and other forums but i'm obviously sitting on the line.

I've tried Trillian 3.1 and CBIRC (Java-based irc-Client). In both i get the message that it can't connect. In Trillian it's error 10053.
The other Messengers are working (yahoo, msn, skype, etc.)

On the wl500g i tried to use trigger ports (all possible solutions i can imagine)
I've also tried Port-Forwarding for 113 (ident) and irc-common-ports 6667-6669. As this doesn't help the next step was using the exposed-host-function. Nothing helped.
With etherreal there is only dns-traffic.
Last thing i've tried was to use the newest firmware (oleg 7b) to get a blank router.
Of course the desktop firewall is disabled.

So now I don't know what to do. Maybe there are some hints out there for me!

Thanks for help

Hi all!

Please forget my question. It's not the router! My AV-Software has some kind of Desktop Firewall Features, which blocks irc-communication.
