Just downloaded the ProtoSharesQT but I get a message saying "No block source available" when it loads up. Any ideas?

In you wallet go to Settings>>Options>>Network. Then under Network you declick the "connect through SOCKS-proxy" box - then click "apply". Now close you client and restart it. Double check that SOCKS is unclicked if not repeat the process..

Here are some nodes from my protoshares.conf:
addnode=cryptoseed.cloudapp.net
addnode=180.183.205.118
addnode=162.243.67.4
addnode=162.243.54.126
addnode=37.139.29.236
addnode=64.90.183.137
addnode=180.183.205.118
addnode=61.238.157.8
addnode=54.254.192.95
addnode=54.207.21.146
addnode=54.206.30.227
addnode=54.219.164.14
addnode=146.185.172.136
addnode=162.243.14.13
addnode=94.23.215.174

If you enter them in the wallets command console enter like this:
addnode 94.23.215.174 add
etc
etc


My pts client (Version 0.2.0, available via http://invictus-innovations.com/downloads/) woun't sync and its says "no block source available".
I already sent the PTS from an only exchange to an address provided by the client.
Am I still good to perform what is suggested in the quote above?? OR what am I supposed to do with this http://pastebin.com/eHXk3CC5 ?
Thanks!

Just wanted to say: after you add the nodes...wait. Leave the qt running in the background for a couple of hours, even if it still says "No block source available"  after adding the nodes. There's a good chance it will be updated next time you look at it.

Instead node 168.63.12.227 please use cryptoseed.cloudapp.net, it's a DNS name for old 168.63.12.227

Updates above post.
But 1 specfic addnode wont really matter much if people from start is trying to connect through SOCKS proxy by default and there is so many millions variables of firewall/router/whatever settings that can prevent the client to connect through SOCKS proxy ;)
