I ran mIRC and put debug mode. It's crashed again so where do I find the debug.log? I don't see it in my mIRC folder.

It should be in whatever folder $mircdir points to (the same location mirc.ini is). Unless you put mirc.ini into your install folder, then you should find it in your Application Data folder. In Windows 7, that would be c:\users\yourlogin\appdata\roaming\mirc\ . It's something similar in Vista, but without "roaming".

Of course, from within mirc, you can just type /run debug.log and it should open it for you (or at least pop up the dialog asking what program to use to open it if you don't have notepad or whatever set up to load log files).

Ok I found it, should I PM it to someone? Although I'm not sure how useful it'll be since I'm on like 70 channels.

You could probably email it to khaled@mirc.com, but I think just pasting the bottom 2-5 lines here would be enough. If there's any personal information, you can **** it out, but try to avoid that unless it's really necessary in case you accidentally **** out something that's important.

I disabled all the encoding/font related options in Options/IRC/Messages and it still crashed, I did not try different combinations. About the debug.log, is there a detail level to it? Or is this really simply a channel log? Depending on the encoding setting for the log file, the lines that make me crash are
<- :nwa!~defianze@somewhere PRIVMSG #channel :4&#32349;&#33292;&#12539; 7blah in ANSI and
<- :nwa!~defianze@somewhere PRIVMSG nwa :2&#12496;&#12540;6nbn in UTF-8

No, there's no detailed level. Debugging shows all information sent or received over the network as well as the format in which it's being sent or received (such as PRIVMSG). That gives it more detail already than a standard log. Those are the very last lines in the log, right (unedited other than removing host info)? You'll need to wait and see what Khaled thinks when he sees that and if he needs any more information. I've tried reproducing it, but I don't have Japanese locale, so that may be why I can't crash mIRC using any of the combinations of text that you've shown.

Thanks, that helps narrow it down - it's proving to be a tricky issue though as I have not been able to reproduce it yet. Here are the exact steps I took to try to reproduce it:

1. Using Windows 7 32bit, Japanese System Locale.
2. Create an empty folder on the Windows Desktop.
3. Copy mirc.exe for mIRC 6.35 into this folder - and no other files.
4. Create an empty mirc.ini in this folder.
5. Run mIRC.
6. Fill in details in the Connect dialog.
7. In Options/IRC/Messages disable/uncheck the following:
"SJIS/JIS conversion"
"Multibyte display"
"Multibyte editbox"
"UTF-8 display"
"Font linking"
"ANSI codes"
8. Connect to a server on irc.efnet.org.
9. Try the following commands:
//echo 4繝舌・ 7blah in ANSI
//echo 2バー6nbn in UTF-8
//msg $me 4繝舌・ 7blah in ANSI
//msg $me 2バー6nbn in UTF-8

If you follow the above steps exactly, does mIRC still crash for you?

Yes (with font script set to Western).
Although I'm on 64 bit Win7.

Following those steps to the letter, no crash here under Windows 7 64.

Moved my mouse over the message, selected the text (this tends to speed up the crash, but it's not necessary) --> crash.

Thanks, I was able to reproduce it. After closing the options dialog, I copied the //echo command and pasted it into the Status Window editbox and pressed the enter key. I then opened the font dialog, changed the font from FixedSys Japanese script (which was the default) to Georgia Western script, and pressed OK. At that point, if I highlighted the text (which was now Mojibake) in a certain way, mIRC would freeze.

I tested the Unicode beta version of mIRC and could not reproduce it, so it appears to be a non-unicode multi-byte issue. Thanks for helping to track it down.

If they both froze at the same time, then it would have to be caused by something sent from/through the server such as the Japanese text issue mentioned.
