After about 30mins irc freezes/hangs and then disconnects me. I upgraded to 6.16 and it still freezes.

Any ideas?

Check all scripts you have, check to see if antivirus or firewall is causing it, check to see if you're running any other software that may cause it (like P2P).

Firewalls actively check connections, they can terminate one just as quick as you can blink.

Secondly, scripts can cause the problem if the client is corrupted, or you manage to run into a bug. Possibly a DLL has been called and is not using $dllcall and is cause the program to hang by endless loop or waiting for some response or just waiting.

make sure you know what you are loading if the script/dll is the case.
