I'm trying to work out what this fixation is that people have with mIRC suddenly increasing in MB. Don't get me wrong here - if smileys, emoticons, avatars, pictures, call them what you will, are never ever supported by mIRC then I am quite comfortable with that, however I am tired of people bleating in advance of a feature's inclusion that mIRC would increase in size.
Who cares about the size. Computers, generally, are hundreds of times more powerful now than when mIRC or IRC for that matter was invented and download speeds have improved alot wiht the advent of broadband and even 56k. I doubt there'd be too many people by comparison that still use a 14k connection and in any case, who says you have to sit at the machine watching a download, make a cup of tea and relax.
mIRC.exe is 1.84MB - hardly a massive consumer of resources.
