Well, the server name is right "irc.dcloneirc.net". I've never tried to join a server with /s though. I put the server name under "mIRC Options/Connect/Servers" and click the "Connect To Server" button, or click the "Connect" button on the mIRC toolbar.
If that doesn't work then you may have a setting elsewhere in mIRC that is causing the server to refuse you, or it could mean your IP is banned from the server. I don't know if they ban an IP from the server or not though. If you were kicked from the channel or the server for something you did the last time you were on there, then that probably means your IP is banned.
I don't know enough about mIRC to completely diagnose your issue, but it's a start.
Edit: I also found out that if you attempt to connect to the irc.dcloneirc.net network through a proxy it will result in a ban, possibly permanently, from the server.
