Same here, but the message I get is a little bit different. Here it is:

Network Error Cannot connect to host alessandro.route-add.net, port 70.

Unknown error. [Cancel - ^C] [OK: Enter]

And some of the links displayed in the start page seem to be outdated (for instance [16] Home Gopher at UMN (a good place to browse)/)
