After reading countless posts about how people use the mIRC client for filesharing purposes..something came to mind. Why not set a limitation on how big a file can be sent or received and not be able to change it? I figured that this would limit someones options on the illegal distribution of copyrighted materials through mIRC which in turns force them to use something else other than mIRC. Such as allowing the limit to equal the size to a descent sized image file or something.

This wouldn't solve the problem with fileswapping on the internet but it would prevent users from disgracing a great program like mIRC and abusing its ability for illegal purposes...What does everyone think of this idea? Course now by posting this I am sure I have sparked a major argument LOL...

I for one would like the idea since I've only used mIRC to send documents to friends...
