I *REALLY* don't think this is an issue with running mIRC on WinXPProx64. Becuase it worked for a while on the same platflorm.
So either I have been hit with some rather nasty malware that I am unable to find...... or windows did an "update" without asking me to approve. I no symptoms of malware other then I use windows.
or some other app that has been installed (that I can't think of) has been installed and forkered with the dlls that die.
