I have had this bug too. I already tried to debug it as well. As soon as you 
refresh the server list, the engine sends a ping request to all servers 
reported by the master server. I tcpdumped this and noticed that all servers 
get pinged, but not all servers actually reply. I tested this with xqf as 
well, but all servers responded there. Nevertheless, I didn't follow this 
further as I had not heard reports of the same problem back then and thought 
this might be a connection tracking issue of the Linux kernel, as I use the 
internet over another Linux router. Reading these reports here I am not that 
sure anymore. I might look again into this problem when I get the time.
