Try stratum+tcp://pool:port for 3333? It is stratum, right? http is used for longpoll and you would need to use the appropriate longpoll port that would then advertise stratum and switch you to it.
Still identifies it as bad
Tried it from the command line and in pool management
Try it without any leading protocol definition.
I use "-o us.ozco.in:3333"
for instance.

You mean like cgminer -o
http://pool:port -u username -p password
as I posted above, or am I completely misunderstanding you?
Edit:
Oh, you mean without the http.
I use us3.eclipsemc.com:3333
but that isn't working
What about using one of the other US servers? I personally use us1 with us2 as my failover.
