I have an issue with the spark client on Mac OSX 10.7.5 WHen I run the Spark IM client I am disconnected every minute or so. It will reconnect, and then disconnect again. I have done Uninstalls and re-installs. The message is “Your connection was closed with an Error”
The strange thing is that I can shutdown spark on the Mac side, open it under windows parallels and the same thing will occur with the windows version.
THis is the error I get on the WIndows side:

On the Mac Side it appears to be a similar error:

I have on multiple occasions un-installed and re-installed the client on both OSs. I am sure that they are not running simultaneously. I appear to be the only one in the office with this issue, but am also the only Mac user. I feel like it may be some kindof network issue, but I also run multiple CIrrix based apps from here and they do not drop as would be suggested if it was a general connectivity issue.
The only other thing, and I have not had as much time to confirm this as I’d like is that if I connect from home over VPN I do not seem to have the same problem.
