I can't be for certain but I do not think this is a windows issue. After talking with west and a few others in IRC and then testing, the results are fairly similar up until west's win10 exanoke(I haven't testing on win10 yet):

Win XP, Win Vista, Win 7, Win 8, Win 8.1 break from the loop as expected, even if windows has put the program into 'not responding' mode:

Test code: //while ($true) noop

Tried starting loop and immediately pressing crlt+break AND starting loop, waiting 10s, clicking inside the mIRC window, waiting ~10s then ctrl+break'ing.

Neither fail to exit the loop from winxp through win8.1
