Ever since I started using 6.1 I noticed that whenever I want to disconnect using the lightning icon, I have to click it twice. Clicking once will not work. I do not mean double-click, I have to actually click the button again. Is this something on my end or is this a mIRC problem ?

125.Added toolbar disconnect confirm option: requires two clicks
to disconnect from a server, to prevent accidental disconnects.

The new version of mIRC also performs a soft disconnect on the first click, which closes the server connection gracefully, allowing the server to send any disconnect information that it wants mIRC to display before the connection is closed.

However, it seems most people don't like this behaviour, since if the connection is lagged, it can take a second or two for the disconnect to take place, so I will most likely be changing it back in the next version.

Oh, could you leave it as an option? I like it frown.
Can't understand why most people dislike it, it's only about 2s..
