Hi, for those of us running 2 instances of mIRC, how do we control which instance grabs irc:// type urls? I'm using one instance with Invision script because I like Invision's aesthetics and features plus I'm using another instance of mIRC with a trivia script for my channel. When I click on irc:// type links, the trivia bot instance is grabbing the urls. How do I change this behavior so that my Invision mIRC grabs the links instead? Thanks!

The irc:// link will make the most recently opened mIRC connect to the specified server/network. In other words, open the trivia mIRC first, then open the Invision script mIRC, and it should trigger with Invision. As far as I know you cannot force IE to choose a certain mIRC. By the way, I tested with this 6.12.

There have been numerous threads concerning this issue. Perhaps you'd like to run a Search - Expand to 'All Forums' and expand the date range to 'All Posts' for best results.

See if this thread sheds some light.

G'luck!

This way, only the instance where the dde server is called "mIRC" will handle the irc:// links. See /help /dde for availaboe commands.

Thanks Mentality, that seemed to be the answer.
