I have to agree with Parabrat on this one. Warning people that are new to IRC is not stupid it is a smart thing. Take it from me i did the downloading thing through mIRC cause well hey I am willing to try new things. However, I did get infected by a virus and it wasn't a good thing.....I ended up doing a system recovery after neutralizing it with a virus scanner....then wiping my computer to the point of when i first brought it home....all of this because system restore didnt work.. All i'm saying is that if you are new to the IRC scene be very careful on what you accept through DCC because not everyone online are nice people....Unless of course youve known them for a while and are certain that they wouldnt infect your computer. Keep this in mind.
