I'm not new to mIRC but I havent seen this before, I came home today and found my cat laying on my keyboard, and the channel I had open was spammed with stuff like "///////////////////////////" but somehow my cat has managed to make my aliases stop working. I keep getting a message like this: "* Break: command halted (line 19, aliases.ini)" plus, while on Gamesnet, when it pings it does this:

-
[14:53:21] Ping? Pong!
-
* Break: command halted
-

It beeps everytime it pings now, so.. I was wondering how to fix this, only thing ive tried is restarting mIRC, which didnt help, Thanks in advance.

You're using a broken script.

When CTRL+BREAK is pressed, it will halt execution of a single script process currently running. However, holding down CTRL+SCRLLOCK will prevent any and all scripts from ever processing while the key combination is being depressed.

It is possible that your cat mashed your keyboard including these 2 keys, and perhaps left your SCRLLOCK key in a stuck position? There are 2 solutions you might try.

1.) Press SCRLLOCK many times to make sure its not stuck, also Press all 6 of the following keys at the same time: Left-Ctrl + Left-Alt + Left-Shift + Right-Ctrl + Right-Alt + Right-Shift. This will take both hands and perhaps a bit of dexterity. Repeat mashing these 6 keys several times (3's usually enough). This resets most (all?) keyboards when they're doing funky things.

2.) Or Reboot. Keep the cat & keyboard AFK (away from keyboard/kitty!)
