mIRC was not running at the reboot. This time it was a clean reboot. Previous time, with nothing indicated as a problem was not a clean reboot (another program -- Spybots-Search&Destroy previous update, now fixed, caused the crash). mIRC came up fine.
I have noticed for a long time, starting with mIRC 6.x, non-clean exits of mIRC, even pressing the X in upper right corner, can cause all kinds of .ini problems and things, like scripts, to disappear, or at least unload. I have since always typed /exit to get a clean exit.
Also, it seems my previous server list has disappeared and been replaced the the default list that comes with new mIRC. I have been modifying it to taste. As previously stated, I deselected this item, as I have always done, on the 7.11 and then 7.14 installations. All else, other than the severs list, appear to be fine as before.
Thank you for your excellent work. These problems appear minor in the overall scheme of things.
