I am currently having a problem with mIRC 6.03 and any help would be appreciated.

For some time, I have been able to play, and hear others play, sounds in chatrooms, which we would transfer to each other via DCC. All of a sudden, my ability to hear the sounds stopped.

Instead of playing the sound, mIRC now displays a small popup window which has no content - it's just the bar from the top of a window, without even the window content you would normally get underneath it. This happens when I play a sound, or when someone else plays one. The only thing that can be done is to close the popup.

I've tried reinstalling mIRC with no luck and am pretty much out of ideas. Has anyone else come across this?
