Which windowmanager and Desktop Environment are you using?
see http://bugs.winehq.org/show_bug.cgi?id=24265
As a possible workaround, does Alt-Tab (a few times) bring the mirc window back?

Alt-Tab dosent do nothing..Wine is runnind on a server with Unbuntu and i connect to the server with NX-Client for windows.Ubunt have the Gnome interface.

In the bug report from above someone had a similar problem with OpenBox as Windowmanager, and was able to work around it (see last comment in bug report). You may try to play with some config options regarding minimizing windows, icons etc.

I'm not sure about that NX-Client stuff. Did you try, if mirc works flawlessly without that remote stuff? If not, you may file a bug report.

I assumed you had physical access to the server, do you have some kind of sysadmin nearby? If you file a bug report, you will probably be asked for the console output, when running wine, therefore I proposed to try that locally on the server.

Sorry, I understand, that all this is probably not very helpful for you. Your best bet may be to to file a bug report.

The point is, that there may be a bug in wine, if so, there's not much one can do right now.

It may also be related to that issue:
