I have no idea what this means, but it gets very annoying because it takes about 5 minutes to connect, can someone tell me how to fix it?

I guess you are using a script which tries to send some commands to the server while you are not properly logged on yet. Check your remote section and try unloading that script.

nope, no scripts of that sort, this has just been happening recently and the only script i have loaded ive had for a couple years

That error message only appears when you or your script sends a command to the server while you are still logging on to the server. I mean while you are still receiving the notices like:

*** Looking up your hostname

*** Checking Ident

If you didn't type any commands manually and if the error happens everytime you try to connect, it is certainly something wrong with your script.

Remember, some malicious software (viruses, trojans, etc.) can load scripts to your mIRC without your knowledge. I advice you to scan your sytem with an anti-virus program.

it cant be that, i know what im doing when it comes to scripts.

D-Elf Register first. <<-- do the network have any servecis named like that? or what is that.. cos thats not a normal message/notice..

D-Elf is my nick

i tryed that server now, i get on in 1 sec.. and nothing about register for me.. maybe you have to look at your setings in "Local Info" ?

please try doing this:

disconnect from all servers, restart mIRC and type: //!remote off
(don't forget the " ! ")
then try yo connect to the server and let us know if you still receive the error message.

Welcome to the Internet Relay Network, D-Elf

It dont have somthing to do with that X bot on the net? and did you look on your local host?? and tested to change the setings there?

no it shouldnt have anything to do with x and ive played with settings many times before...

its strange if you get that stuff.. i connected without any problems.. even tryed the same server as you,m and same thing, no problems, took 1 sec untill i was connected..

Can you please open a debug window using:

/debug -p @debugwindow

and try to connect after that.

Look at the first few lines in this window to see what kind of commands are sent to the server.

And do you have any "on *:LOGON:" event in any of your loaded script files?

this is what was in the status window...

there is no on *:logon: anywhere

No ident response <<-- so it must have somthing to do ether with a firewall or mirc's settings.. you can get that on linux.. but then you have to "enable" ident on the computer, windows have it enabled by default.. try type: /identd on som_ident .. and try leav the wierd signs out from the ident.. like - . , * ' " and so on.. use just plain text

As you can see your script is sending some strange commands to the server:

-> graz2.at.eu.undernet.org ping lag.675232644
-> graz2.at.eu.undernet.org ping lag.675237651
-> graz2.at.eu.undernet.org ping lag.675242659
-> graz2.at.eu.undernet.org ping lag.675247756
and so on...

I'm sure your won't agree with me but something is really wrong in your script

As you said "i know what im doing when it comes to scripts" then open up your script editor and search all loaded files for these strings:

:LOGON: , lag.

You need to find the section which sends those "ping lag." commands repeatedly.

Good luck.

its NOT a problem with my script and ive had troubles with mIRC for awhile now (not showing the correct ISP and the IDENT not showing up) ive tried to fix it numerous times but it doesnt work. oh well
thanks anyway

Even if your so convinced that it's not your script, please try typing /!remote off and connecting again.
