Background: For anyone who doesn't know, psybnc is a bouncer, which (among other features) allows a user to connect (and stay connected) to multiple IRC servers with a single process. You set up a primary server to which it will connect, and you give secondary servers a "prefix," like ab. So, when I'm connected to two servers, I see the channels from my primary server like normal, and the channels from my secondary server appear as #ab'#channel in the channel bar.

Problem: On secondary networks, for some reason the nicklist hierarchy is out of order. Users with a ~ or & status appear at the bottom of the nick list. If I connect to one of these servers directly, or even through psybnc as a primary network, the nick list is correct. It's only when these channels are on one of my secondary networks that the nick list is out of order.

I have done my best to eliminate psybnc as a problem. Another user connected to the bouncer, also using mIRC, doesn't have this problem. A couple of folks from psybnc's support forum can't duplicate it, either. I've got to assume it's some setting on my end, that I can't correct.

I'm currently using the latest mIRC, 6.35, but this has been going on for a little while, through at least one previous version. I'm not using any pre-made script, just a few remotes and aliases of my own. I don't know of anything in them that would cause this, but I'm open to the suggestion that I've missed something.

Any ideas?
