mIRC sending unknown command to server

Hi all,

On connecting to a server mIRC displays in the status window

Code:

-
CAP Unknown command.
-

On opening the debug window mIRC sends the following command to the server.

Code:

-> irc.webchat.org CAP LS

I have no DLL's or scripts loaded and I am using version 7.14

Thanks in advance.

p.s I paste below the whole connect log from the debug window

Code:

-> irc.webchat.org CAP LS
-> irc.webchat.org NICK insert_username_here

25. Added CAP LS protocol support. mIRC now sends "CAP LS" as the first line when connecting to a server before sending NICK/USER to logon.
Currently enables "multi-prefix" and "packet-size=1024" if they are available.

Added into mIRC 7.01.

That said, mIRC should prolly stop that message from being shown if the command doesn't exist when connecting...

Sending the CAP command is the method of finding out if the server supports CAP. I think the best solution is that mIRC blocks the error message stating the CAP command is invalid.

Currently I'm using RAW:*: to block the CAP command error.

Thanks this error message will be hidden during logon in the next version.
