OS: Win XP (Pro) mIRC version: 6.12 Browser: Internet Explorer Make sure you test on 6.12, just incase you're not. When reporting a bug, it's important to include which mIRC version and sometimes what OS, and perhaps in this case which browser. I tested this three times to see if it worked, and the browser window opened with the site all 3 times. I also tested with another URL and it still worked. Happy chatting Regards, Mentality/Chris

Because this is what happens with any mIRC version here (win98se btw) - the popup is simply ignored. The same occurs also when right-clicking channel names, nicks and everything else. It seems mIRC doesn't know what I right-clicked anymore when a new line appears in the meantime. * cold edits his posts 24/7

Yes, old problem going back several versions at least, most easily seen when a link appears in channel, is right clicked, but a new line appears pushing the clicked line up the screen before the new/existing window option is chosen. Makes following a link in a busy channel a challenge - usually solved by scrolling up so that new lines don't move earlier text up the screen. Using mIRC 6.12 with Win98se or WinMe (depending on location) here. PM IRCnet & DALnet @#travelersinn :-: IRC for fun and relaxation :-:
