Ah nice ,the results are now working with red as 3.60 or higher and the lower FW is now showing. Thinking back at the original script I do believe he did write to a temp file to capture the info as you suggested (or something to that effect) and then have it write to the channel. I can only guess that was this part of his script that i'd see in the status window:

* Removed 'D:\ProgramFiles\mIRC\psnupdate'

The /timer command can be used to delay (ie. slow down) another command.


I thought timers were only used for issuing commands and not controlling the time of the output. I see I have over looked this.

Thanks again Wims and again look forward to your reply.
