Hi Matt, Connection Refused basically means that the server socket is too busy to handle another connection or it's maximum number of conversations has been reached.
If it's too busy it's basically becuase it can't generate conversation threads quick enough, or perhaps the conversation threads are not ending? If it's to do with a maximum simultaeneous conversation count, you should be able to set this somwhere in python. Don't know where though.
