its a good idea to close mIRC and other apps when you're running housecall.

versions of mIRC that you download from mirc.com arent infected. you dont say where exactly housecall found the trojan, but of course you know those things hide all over the place and effect lots of things. one possibility to keep in mind (other than you got infected) is that sometimes AV's get what are called false positives from software. if you are sure that your puter shows clean just before adding a new clean legit copy of mIRC and shows infected after you download it, then contact trendmicro, explain and ask about the possibility of a false positive
