[10053] Software caused connection abort

[DcMaN]

hello, ive been wondering what [10053] Software caused connection abort means because recently i get them all the time on efnet like every 30 minutes i get d/c from efnet with that error message but only on efnet is there a way to fix this ?

this is usually something on the client end, or between you and your isp.

there are many things that can cause this:
bad network drivers
bad wiring in your network
faulty firewall
hardware failure (either your computer, your hub, etc)
problems on your ISP level
etc

basically anything that can cause a "Connection reset by peer" (unplugging your network cable while you're connected can do this).
