mIRC Freezez for no reason #152141 27/06/06 05:53 PM

The_SnifF T	When I load mIRC it freezes for like 30 seconds without doing anything (no CPU/HD actvity). I've checked for viruses/spyware and nothing found, this only happens with mIRC, and tried loading mIRC when AV/spyware checker is off, no difference. Version is 6.16 but it happens with older versions too. This started without any action taken by me, any help? edit: I tried loading mIRC with remote off so it's not that too.

The_SnifF T	Yeah. I've tried nearly everything, even on efnet #mirc. Have no clue whats the problem, but the freeze is on some WaitForObj which has a 1sec timeout, which doesn't make sense

I've found it!

Code:

Call stack of thread 000007B0

014DFF80   77E424B7   ? kernel32.SleepEx                                             kernel32.77E424B2             014DFF7C

014DFF90   776B22A0   ? kernel32.Sleep                                               ole32.776B229A                014DFF8C
014DFF94   0000EA60     Timeout = 60000. ms

It seems that a thread is created which sleeps for a minute(or is it two? dunno lol :S).
This [thread 000007B0] isn't the main thread. Anyone has an idea why this happens?

This [thread 000007B0] isn't the main thread. Anyone has an idea why this happens?

Any chance a Developer would answer what creates each thread? and what could be the problem? the error is when xpsp2res.dll loads.
