The open event isn't triggered is the user uses a single message window. It's only fired if it's disabled and a query window doesn't already exist for the specific user. The on text event is always fired.

The problem I have is a window opening has nothing to do with receiving a private message. mIRC just happens to open a query window if the appropriate options are set. Ironically there is no option not to open a window and treat the message like it does a notice.

The open event will also fire before the on text (or ctcp action) event strangely.
