I also am not seeing any active connections to the ANC blockchain from the windows client (and am therefore unable to sync my wallet). Could these problems be related?
They might be. Perhaps we need some working nodes to put in the conf file.
That would be great! I have not seen an update to the conf file in quite some time.
Update: I am getting some connections now to allow sync (but not many)
A new conf file would still help.
On another note, why has it been so long since meeh posted here? I can see he is still busy with privacy solutions i2p stuff. This coin still has lots of potential with its name, i2p integration and Zerocoin code progress in GitHub.
Any updates on the new hashing algorithm? How are Cryptsy deposits/withdraws working lately? I have not seen any recent posts about that either
I've had 100 ANC stuck at Cryptsy for over a month. I submitted a ticket. They replied with effectively, "we're not going to fix any more ANC deposit/withdraw problems until the devs fix their fundamental problem". I can get the actual quote if anybody needs it.

Yes, we are aware of this problem and are in the process of fixing it by upgrading the base code to bitcoin core 0.9.3. Our first release will not require a hard fork, but should resolve the withdrawal issues that some (but not all...) exchanges have been having. The subsequent release after this will update the difficulty algorithm, and will also implement merge mining multi-POW (auxPOW) using three different algorithms (à la Myriad). If you would like to follow our progress, please check out the
Anoncoin development schedule.
We have a new developer who is helping transition the code to 0.9.3, and as soon as there is a public commit on github that we can point to, we will let you all know.
