BLAAASST!!!!! I'm a tad p*sed off.
I went to the trouble of downloading MIRC at home so maybe during the summer I could still keep in contact without having to resort to spamming up boards with "How's it goin?" etc. Now the bastards want money for the privelidge of using it. What i wanna know is there any way of avoiding lining the pockets of those feckers at mirc.co.uk? (apart from not using it)

The reg box comes up just click on the x in the top right hand corner of it ,gets it off ur screen and then use mirc as usual:)

Stephen

It will work fine without registering. It doesn't take any steps to stop you using it for any period of time. You can even disable the nag-screen when it starts up by un-checking the little box in the bottom left corner.

[Edit: oops. moonbeam beat me to it ]

What, it only asks nicely for you to pay for it? It doesn't force you? Class.

Stephen

Indeed

Every now and then when you start it it will pop up a web browser window with the mirc registration page in it, but you can just close it and off you go

I always wondered what that little tick box was for. I knew that one day if I waited long enough that it would be dropped in front of me.

Snowball

if u have any problems with it use BersIRC it's a pretty cool verson of IRC.
Download it here if you want it. I like it. You can also log onto serveral servers in the one window and keep track of people and windows easily. Its nice.

Stephen

Current versions of mIRC also support multiple servers and the like.

Sir Digby Chicken Caesar

multiple server support = ghey

if i want to use more than one server, I'll use more than one fupping client!

Ahh that's what I was just thinkin!!

































Actually I was thinkin: What the fudge??!!!:(

Sir Digby Chicken Caesar

I can't believe you never got that money popup thing in college though hehe, that's weird.

Don1

I got the "author" (aka ponce) popup alright but never the begging letter. I got it at home. As if my internet connection wasn't slow enough as it was that fuppin thing tried to open a new browser! Grrrrrr. As if I'd give em money after they goin to the trouble of pissin me off!!!:p
