Can't start mIRC

Post by Raider974 »

Hello all,

My first post here. Recently I installed mIRC (.exe) and I was able to install it normally. The program started fine for the first time. Opened right up, asked for username, server etc.
Closed it right after successful initial use.
The problem arose right on my second attempt to use it. I run it from the terminal like I normally do and it shows:

Code: Select all

and the last line here is where it stops. mIRC interface shows spinning throbber and nothing past that. I can only kill it by hand.

Any kind of assistance is highly appreciated.
