ARM64 vs WinXP Support magamiako 28/08/25 03:35 PM

Oh that's a tough one.

Honestly, given mIRC there are probably more people that benefit from having Windows XP support than those that would benefit from having ARM support (after all, ARM64 devices can run x86 code, even if sub optimally).

I'd probably lean on a poll or system check from folks to get an idea of the number.

However, I definitely still recommend getting an x86-64 version of mIRC up and running if possible! As there are enough security benefits under the hood in Windows these days to make that worthwhile.

To be fair, though, maintaining Windows XP support now would be similar to maintaining Kenbak-1 support when mIRC first came out.

Appreciate all the under the hood work! magamiako 28/08/25 03:23 PM

Just wanted to comment to Khaled that I massively appreciate all of the under the hood work being done on mIRC right now! I know it's not something that's typically a visible feature for most users, but it's important work to keep mIRC modernized (and hopefully, better performance and more security).

Thanks!

BADNICK JOIN/CHANGE Fernet 26/08/25 01:54 PM

Hi. I'm using this addon that check ON JOIN and ON NICK if nick is included in bnicks.txt.
So if nick is included in the file, so the user receive a kick/ban:

Code

on !*:JOIN:#CHANNEL:{
  var %idmask $remove($gettok($gettok($address($nick,5),1,64),2,33),~)
  var %x = 1
  while (%x <= $lines($mircdirbnicks.txt)) {
    if ($read(bnicks.txt,%x) iswm %idmask) {
      cs ban $chan +3600 $+(*!*,$v1,*@*) NICK NOT ALLOWED ! | /write $mircdir $+ banemule.txt *Badnick* $date $time $nick ---> $address
    }
    if ($read(bnicks.txt,%x) iswm $nick) {
      cs ban $chan +3600 $+(*,$v1,*!*@*) NICK NOT ALLOWED ! | /write $mircdir $+ banemule.txt *Badnick* $date $time $nick ---> $address
    }
    inc %x
  }
}

on *:NICK:{
  var %i = 1, %badwords = 1
  while (%i <= $comchan($newnick,0)) {
    if ($comchan($newnick,%i) != #eMule-Italian) { break }
    if ($newnick !isop $comchan($newnick,%i)) && ($newnick !ishop $comchan($newnick,%i)) && ($newnick != $me) {
      while (%badwords <= $lines(bnicks.txt)) {
        if ($read(bnicks.txt,%badwords) iswm $newnick) {
          cs ban $chan +3600 $+(*,$v1,*!*@*) NICK NOT ALLOWED !  | /write $mircdir $+ banemule.txt *Badnick* $date $time $newnick ---> $address($newnick,5)
        }
        inc %badwords
      }
    }
    inc %i
  }
}

All the + % @ & ~ users are protected, but because I have some troll users who use to wear a nick that recall ircop/ircap , I'd like to add an exception for them too, because in the channel , they don't have any status (so they looks normal users) , so they receive kick/ban too.
So I think addon should has to check mask.
I plan to make a exceptednick.txt and write allowed nicks/masks.

These are ircop/Ircap part of mak:

*!*@ServicesAdmin.*
*!*@NetAdmin.*
*!*@*.NETNAME.org
*!*@NL.IrcOp.NETNAME.org

Thanks for help
