I installed the new version as guided on the page for the beta.

I installed it on my laptop which didn't have mIRC on it anyway (this was to avoid it conflicting with any previous version)

I have since then, installed it on a portable device, and when I open up the mirc.exe, the same problem occurs, /server takes around 10 seconds to respond.

However, /server -m responds imediately
