Hi. I've used mIRC for many years, and this is the first time that this problem has happen to me. I'm using xp, and if I stay idle for about 30 minutes to an hour, mIRC stops receiving messages. After thar If I type anything in a channel / status window, mirc disconnects and gives me the message "Software caused connection abort". I've already read the story about Mary and Joe, but it didn't help at all. I've tried connecting to 4 or 5 diferents servers, using clean mIRC or a script but the result was equal. I'm using mIRC 6.03 and I'm out of ideas . Btw great program (never mention it).

Have a look at this thread.

Thx
