Website is working again for me but IRC still wont work (same error). I dont have Java installed because its a bug-ridden piece of crap (I say that as someone who has not only USED Java in the past but actually WRITTEN Java code) but the web based IRC client would fail in the same way since it appears to route IRC traffic straight from your local machine to the n00bstories IRC server.
A little reading of the www.ahbl.org website indicates that the blacklists it supports are either gone or going away which seems to explain why its returning bogus results and blocking people it shouldn't be. I do kinda see why n00bstories IRC might want to block TOR exit nodes (to avoid people using TOR to get around the various forms of IP bans) but I guess they need to find a new blacklist to use.
