Whenever I go to Help | About Below where it says that I'm registered there is some line that obviously aren't meant to be there. How do I get rid of them?

There is? Can you provide a screen shot? When I check mine, the About item is the last item in that menu.

Here you go! This is the first time I've made an image and posted it onto an online image site! Hope it works okay. shocked

Your About window seems to be about 1/8" taller than mine (at the same resolution, apparently). It looks like Khaled has writing (notes, maybe) outside the borders of the window.

I think the main problem would be Vista that renders the window in a different size then XP ;-]


If it ain't broken, don't fix it!

Yeah, I just checked my Vista system and it has the same thing, yet my XP system shows fine. Personally I think it's a little bit of an annoyance, but how often does one pull up their About window?
I wouldn't have even pulled it up if it wasn't for this subject.

Do you think someone can make mIRC 6.2.1 that fixes this problem? I always pull up the about menu when I am bored. Thanks, please reply.

PS: I have just downloaded and installed windows vista RC2 5744 and the same problem occurs.

I don't know if Khaled reads all of the posts on here or not, but I do know that he reads the posts in the Future Suggestions & Bug Reports sections, which is where this should go. Personally, I would put it in the Bug Reports section, since it's more of a bug than a future suggestion.

It's a left-over from the Registration dialog, which reads
"If you have registered, you can enter your registration here".
I would guess that once the software is registered, the dialog window shrinks to hide that text.

By the way Khaled did you create mIRC??? I think you're picture used to be in the about menu. Then again it might of been BitTorrent Client. Please reply!

Your own screenshot shows Khaled's picture in the About dialog... so yes, he did create mIRC. But he did not create IRC. Nor did he create BitTorrent. Not are mIRC/BitTorrent in any way related.

Don't you mean nor? You wrote not! By the way I already knew that they are not related. Thanks for the quick reply. When is the fixed version of mIRC coming out?

Yes, I meant 'nor'. Whoops!

Khaled does not release information about when the next version of mIRC will be out. It's just a matter of waiting.

Well, you don't really have a choice in waiting or not. You can't have it before it's released.

Khaled does not reveal the version number for the next version, so you'll have to wait to find out that too.
