#1 - dcc problems in mirc

ƕ - i'm connected to i-net through cave's computer - he has shared the line by using two nic's, so the setup is cabelmodem->cave's comp->switch->my comp

the problem is that i can't dcc through irc for some reason, not really sure which ports to open(and how if have to config something on cave's comp or something)
it it matters, he use winxp, while i use win2k


#2 - auto login on ta forums in opera

ƕ - i use opera (7.54english) as my default browser
have enabled auto login on several forums, including this, but suddenly some weeks ago it stopped logging me in automatically on this forum only..
still works on all other forums, so i'm not sure what to do
i've tried to clean cookies / wand passwords for the forum but still won't do..
but it still works fine with ie though..

would be nice if anyone could have helped me out
