This is one of the different bans from servers that you will see. Efnet is especially bad at banning people... they will even ban people for not having an identd response (which is not possible for most people in colleges and universities).
The best way around this is to try a different server on that network.
Note, however, that a D-line is a ban on your entire ISP. Getting around that on any server of that network will be very hard without first managing to get your ISP unbanned. Doing that would require either you or your ISP contacting the network involved and trying to sort things out. Or, if you're lucky, the ban is a timed ban and will go away after awhile.
