Thanks.. I apparently figured out what was wrong about 10 seconds before you posted. Thanks for the trouble, though.

As for why, I used to use CTCP commands for certain things (controlling my other computers by remote, for instance), but DCC is quicker and isn't affected by the flood control that many servers have. I don't want people to be able to look on the computer and just pull up mIRC and see what I've been telling the other to do.
