 Replying to [ticket:5276 Iago1989]:
 > I went into buddies, and clicked add a buddy. Not realizing that one of
 my IRC accounts was selected, I filled in the screen name and alias, and I
 have not yet stopped receiving repetitive error messages every 10 or so
 seconds saying "IRC server has received a message it does not understand."
 With the screen name in bigger letters. the only way I can stop the
 messages is by disabling the account, that is until you help me!

 I think this is just connection error to the IRC server. I had this
 problems before. It's probably the firewall or the router setup blocking
 the port to connect for IRC server or their server is down.
