Since 6.34 was released Im having trouble with the aero theme. mirc would start in aero but if I load some program like firefox it goes to basic mode (while other programs remain in aero).

Ive not had this issue in any previous versions.

I have yet to experience this. Do you have your java up to date? java1.5 will revert aero sporadically

control panel > java
and find the version in the control panel

or, goto the java website, theres a checker somewhere there


This is not the signature you are looking for

The problem happens when a channel has unicode in it's topic.

But his claim is that firefox will revert aero in mIRC, not that a topic will, which is not the same issue as the channel topic problem.

I have the same problem, Aero doesn't work on the mIRC 6.34 window. It does work on the options box.

I don't have Firefox installed, maby even not java yet, this is a clean Vista Ultimate SP1 64bit install.

Then you do *not* have the same problem as the OP. Have you seen the referenced URL in my post? Does mIRC revert to non-aero when you have unicode in a channel topic for a maximized window?

This didn't happen to me in Vista Ultimate x64 yet.
And I use FireFox v3 too.
I could think of a third party application causing this, such as a certain virus scanner.
