Forums mIRC Help mirc freezing

didnt want to put this into bug forums coz i dont know reason what causes it...

anyways it doesnt happen often but like once a month...
mirc is normally open, im in few channels
and suddenly it freezes in way that i cant change (switch) to channels it just wont respond but anything else works (server messages, events etc...)

when i try to minimise it i get this window on top:



after trying to minimise few times and CANCEL on this window, everything comes to normal...

and since i dont have anything of scripts that calls this (dunno even how to call that window) then i cant blame for scripts :P

any ideas?

I don't know what you'd call that screen either, but it looks like it's requiring a password before allowing you to minimize mIRC. Since this doesn't happen consistantly, I don't know what else to tell you. Sorry.

That looks like the password box that pops up when you have the Lock options enabled (ALT+O > Other > Lock).

I've got lock enabled and never experienced this. I have a feeling that although a script is not actually forming this dialog, it probably is the cause of the random freezing of mIRC and odd behaviour.

Regards,

but why does it calls lock dialog at all

Ctrl+Minimize will lock mIRC. Check your key isn't getting stuck and that you aren't hitting it by accident.
