Hi I am trying to do the mining pool but I keep getting the error "Problems communicating with bitcoin RPC" when I specify a host/port in poclbm.exe

If I don't specify a host/port it works fine but then I am not apart of the pool I guess.

I have forwarded port 8332 from router to my PC. I am using windows 7 64bit and I have enabled port 8332 for both inbound and outbound traffic in the win7 firewall. but I am still getting the RPC errors. Is there something I am missing? maybe a special way to enable it in the win7 firewall?

Im using both cmd line proclbm with following command:
start /DC:\Users\Mike\Documents\bitcoin\poclbm_py2exe poclbm.exe --host=mining.bitcoin.cz --port=8332 --user=login --pass=password --device=0 -w 128 -f 60

I tried the GUIMINER but i get same error although every 15 mins or so on guiminer it looks like it does connect cause my Accepted thing went up even though console is spammed with the RPC error.
