Code:
/window -pkodCfB +nt @F -1 -1 240 240
/drawrot -f @F 1 0 0 240 240
/drawrot -f @F 2 0 0 240 240

The crash happens at this last command.
It seems to happen after the first /drawrot as soon as the first number in its parameters changes.

I run Windows 98 (the original release, called 'Gold' or so).
mIRC versions 5.91 till 6.20 do not have the crash
It starts from 6.21

15.Improved /drawrot, now faster and supports float values.
This is certainly the reason of your report.It seems that the new method to make /Drawrot faster does not work on win98.

Edit : of course i'm unable to reproduce this on my winXP, but i've tried, to use /drawrot on a corporate version of window xp and it works only if I use it one time.If I use it each second for example, the application is simply closed, no crash, no window report.I'm not considering this as a bug since it's with a corporate version of window.

Thanks, I haven't been able to reproduce this issue yet. I tested mIRC under different installations and versions of Windows, including a clean install of Windows 98. It's possible it could be related to your graphics driver. Have you tried testing with different graphics drivers or the latest driver update for your graphics card?

I checked it but I had the latest driver - Matrox G550 AGP - display driver 4.13.01.1320 (1.32.016).
Could the Microsoft DirectX version affect this?

I discovered this too. Apparantly, /drawrot will crash somewhat randomly when looping it a number of times. And yes, I do count mIRC just closing without any error as a crash.

this code will do the trick... I'm not sure why either. Other people have tried it and have the same problem.

I'm running Windows 2003 Server, but it also failed on other OSs.

Thanks for the link, I was able to reproduce it with that script and should have this issue fixed for the next version.
