We all know mIRC is due for an update. With the new OS windows 7, mIRC can enjoy a nice set of identifiers and commands to utilize these new features.

The windows 7 taskbar (aero mode) allows applications to customize their thumbnail preview and right click menu. Some of the features are bitmap image as well as controls (just like dialog controls: buttons, textbox, list, etc..).

It would be nice if the next version of mIRC will include ability to customize the taskbar thumbnail preview and custom right click menu by using a dialog-like code style.
