1) I'm not talking about scripts. Lack of ON.

2) every other IRC client I use the same proxy settings on connects fine. The settings are correct.

3) It is an aesthetic issue, as I said it wasn't script related. Remotes are off.

4) I'm reporting that mIRC has a bug when it comes to echoing disconnect/connect fail events when they occur with the proxy settings set as shown. Which is what I've been saying all along.
