Hi all,

I accidentally ignored *!*@* for channel text instead of CTCPs as I had intended. I tried to remove the entry with /ignore -r *!*@* and /ignore -r, but the command returned "*!*@* is not in ignore list" and "Ignore list cleared" respectively, but /ignore -l returns "* Ignore list: *!*@* (c)". Any idea how to remove this?

/ignore -r *!*@* should work, like /ignore -r should too
Do you have any "ignore" alias ? Try /!ignore -r

No aliases or other scripts; this is a stock install. /!ignore -r behaved the exact same way as /ignore -r, and /ignore -l still shows the entry.

Which version of mirc are you using ? Can you reproduce this with a mirc 6.35, possibly a clean one ?

The installed version is 6.35, but I installed a clean version in c:\mirc2 and could NOT reproduce the problem. My main install (the one with the problem) is, for all intents and purposes, a clean install as well: I do not script myself and do not use addons. The only thing I've changed are the fonts and colors.

I'm wondering now if there's a problem with the spaces in the directory. The install with the problem is in C:\Program Files (x86)\mIRC. Hmm.

I can't see how your directory could be a problem.
In your main install, type this in any editbox :
//echo -a $version $md5($mircexe,2) $script(0) $dll(0) $isalias(ignore)
and paste the result here.
At this point, it's hard to tell what can cause this, have you tried to unignore by using /abook -c ?

6.35 2f63a83968f9586fe4fb48134253619c 1 0 $false

/abook -c did let me remove the entry and now /ignore -l shows a clear list. Still strange that the /ignore command didn't work like it was supposed to though.

You probably made a typo when using /!ignore, the only thing that could explain this would be that you have an on input catching /ignore or something like that.
Just for fun, have you retried this scenario and tried to use /ignore ?

I don't know... it's working fine now, I know I didn't make a typo because I never received a "Unknown Command" error and since I don't script or use other's scripts I couldn't have a remote catching /ignore or /!ignore. Weird, but at least it's working now.
