Spam Bot, broken pipe

I have a irc spam bot (only testing on my channel :P ) whose main loop is
the following:

privc="PRIVMSG "+self.channel
while True:
self.sock.send(privc=" :SPAM SPAM SPAM!");
time.sleep(2);

And it gives an error "Broken Pipe".
How can I fix this?

I'm just testing it on my channel! I promise! Besides, I'm doing it to learn
about sockets! Please!

Poor choice of words on your part. Anything spam-related is evil and
will not get a response.

That said, "IRC bots" are certainly okay and common, and are useful
tools. Some are even written in Python.
