and sorry this may be dumb but what IP am i replacing those "x"'s with?

Any of these in this list: https://en.bitcoin.it/wiki/Fallback_Nodes#IPv4_Nodes

For example, your bitcoin.conf might look like...

Code:
addnode=64.22.103.150
addnode=69.164.218.197
addnode=173.242.112.53
addnode=178.79.147.99

Or your command line...

Code:
bitcoin.exe -addnode=64.22.103.150 -addnode=69.164.218.197 -addnode=173.242.112.53 -addnode=178.79.147.99

IP addresses from those on the fallback node list are good candidates (https://en.bitcoin.it/wiki/Fallback_Nodes)

You can try adding one or more fallback nodes. Either modify (or create) your bitcoin.conf to have one or more lines like...

Code:
addnode=x.x.x.x

or add one or more of the following arguments to your command line...

Code:
-addnode=x.x.x.x

Got screwed because.... bitcoin is not making any connections and im waiting on a payment. And the real kicker. I just sent some money to http://flipforbits.com/  but it doesnt see I have made a payment because my client is not working. So im going to lose the coins I just bet?

edit: ok I have 1 connection now... maybe it can confirm some stuff for me XD... and back to 0
