Blacklisted?

If you are trying to connect to irc.mibbit.net and you are banned with a notice similar to this,
Sindacious[127.0.0.1] (User has been banned from Mibbit ((127.0.0.1) was found blacklisted (DNSBL)))
Then you're connecting to the network with a blacklisted IP address.

But, I'm not doing anything

In the event that you're blacklisted, and you're banned from the server due to this, you can lookup your IP address on the DNS blacklist that you were banned on, and request it is removed. Some will remove it right away, some you have to wait at least 24 hours for the request to be processed.

Where to request for removal

When you're banned form the network you will get a notice looking something like this:
(IP_ADDR) was found blacklisted, see http://njabl.org/cgi-bin/lookup.cgi?query=IP_ADDR
When banned, go to the link that is provided in your ban message, then request for removal after looking up the IP address and seeing the reason why.
