Try to change that address from mining.bitcoin.cz to stratum.bitcoin.cz (or better to stratum+tcp://stratum.bitcoin.cz:3333)
It's possible your ISP throttles this type of traffic and thus you can't connect properly.
Topic: connection errors with mining clients when pointing to pool (Read 8157 times)
greetings. i am getting this error as well.
i think that it is Lion's fault.
i installed Lion on the machine that I mined with under Snow Leopard.
my miner couldn't connect, i got the same errors.
i reinstalled Snow Leopard and it is mining again fine.
any help will be tipped generously once the ASCIs come out
have a sweet day.

Check your ISP. I am now getting this error too. If i tether with my 3g phone, the problem goes away.
So i'm now underway pool mining with BitMinter
Quick and easy to get up and running.
I'm running at about 45 to 50 Mhps and the gui suggests around 0.005 BTC per day 'mint speed'
Interested in reading about anyones thoughts / experience with BitMinter, and of course, still looking to fix the problems with the other clients mentioned in my first post
