Using mIRC 7.38 on Windows7 x64. If someone posts links to websites and the link in question does not have the normal www. in it when I click on link mirc appears to be inserting wwww. in the link. That is fine IF the webserver is configured properly. If not then the link errors out.

If I copy and past the URL from the channel and into firefox there is no www inserted.

example

http://minneapolis.craigslist.org/ank/sop/4862295820.html

If click on that link in a channel firefox winds up getting http://www.minneapolis.craigslist.org/ank/sop/4862295820.html and that errors out since the craigslist server is not configured for www.

Ignoring your typo in the first sentence "wwww.", I know you meant "www."

I did test the link by pasting it to a /query window and then I clicked the link. It did not add "www." to the domain name, but rather it remained the same and loaded in Firefox correctly.

I recommend you try typing /remote off or unload all your installed mIRC scripts, then test this behavior again.

Ok that fixed it. Will have to look at the scripts here. Thanks for the help.

You're welcome. Search for the word hotlink in your scripts.
