So when will it be fixed? I've had this same issue on three different computers now. I _finally_ got the options box open on this PC (PC 1) after I completely uninstalled mIRC, searched the registry for mIRC entries and deleted them, then reinstalled it. It came up one time. After I put in all my info and hit connect it never came up again. Two of the PCs have Windows 98 SE. One of them has Windows ME.
PC 1: HP desktop, Win98 SE, 466 Celeron, 64 MB ram
PC 2: Toshiba laptop, Windows ME, PIII 750, 256 MB ram
PC 3: Dell desktop, Win98 SE, unknown processor other than PII, 192 MB ram, work PC.
PC's 2 and 3 were fresh installs of mIRC and had never had mIRC before. PC 2's options box never came up even once. PC 3's came up and then suddenly stopped. PC 1 was an upgrade from mIRC 5.x. The options box worked on it before the upgrade.
I'm running mIRC version 6.03 downloaded and registered from this site with no custom scripts installed. Downloading an older version and installing it doesn't seem to help, however, I have not tried removing mIRC from the registry and then installing a newer version. Even so, I shouldn't have to downgrade mIRC just to be able to alter my options and fix whatever DCC problem I'm having.
I understand most of you, if not all of you, are just volunteers for this support message board. However, since a few of us have actually registered the software, I really hope and wish something would be done about this other than "oh well sorry". Twenty dollars isn't a whole lot of cash for certain, but considering that pIRCh is free and works on my PCs, I hope you can see my frustration at paying for something that isn't working and apparently can't be easily fixed.
