mIRC has crashed several times today. I'm running about 6 copies of mIRC 6.03. Only the copy I'm using for Efnet is crashing. No DLLs are loaded. Can anyone help me find what's causing the crashing?

* Raccoon notices the irony of your sig and the fact that you're still running multiple instances of mIRC long after multi-server support has been added, rather than adapting like everyone else.
Well. At least I won lunch.

Thanks for the flame, but it doesn't really help me figure why mIRC is crashing. Why I choose to run multiple copies is irrelevant to my post. If you really must know why I choose to do so, search the board archives. I'm sure I mentioned it after the fire.

Well, as for EFNet being unique in some way to cause mIRC to crash... I would analize all your scripts where the network you're connected to causes anything different to happen. Try using /debug to pinpoint if the crash is relative to any server event, and perhaps turn /remote off to see if it still happens.
The only way I know how to crash mIRC is with $regex. Perhaps that may help.

Well they dont really crash it, they just make it stop responding so you have to terminate the application or break the loop.

alias crash {
var %i 1
while (%i <= 99999999999999999999) {
/timer -m 0 1 //echo -a blah
inc %i
}
}
i think that trying to start well over 9 billion timers would make mirc crash :tongue:

Well, i managed to get:
* Timer 653 activated
before mIRC truly froze, but when I pressed CTRL+SCROLL_LOCK, it was ok again.
* Break: command halted
I still wouldn't call it a crash, It just ties up mIRC until you break it.
Maybe if I had left it longer an error message would of came up, maybe not.
