I don't have Vista to verify this, but I would imagine it returns Vista. From versions.txt

87.Extended $os to handle Vista.


Regarding MDX, I can't say one way or the other, especially since I was never able to get them to work with any version of mIRC (main reason why I went to DCX)

2. Both MDX and DCX are reported to work fine under Vista. Can't confirm myself though.

The names "Vista", "XP", or "98" etc. have to be added manually. mIRC just reads the Windows version numbers to determine which name to use.


Spelling mistakes, grammatical errors, and stupid comments are intentional.

Of course, you can use a COM script to get the real OS information, including SP info.
