Cos mirc is evil and will corrupt youl to with its ugly, bland, Win 3.1 bitter look..

Only Win 3.1 looks like Win 3.1. When I run mIRC in Win XP it takes the interface of that operating system and looking at mIRC in both side by side will make you understand quite quickly that the two look nothing alike.

The other thing is, and please excuse me if someone has already mentioned this as I only took a quick glance at the replies to your insane post due to the fact that common sense will dictate that all would be in stark contrast to yours, mIRC is just a chat programme - ie: an interface which displays information send to and from an IRC server. The other thing is, MSN's chat failed because it was not adequately supervised and their rules were not easy to enforce.
