mIRC will immediately save unwritten INI settings as a precaution.9.Added STARTTLS support using the CAP tls protocol.
To initiate a secure connection to a STARTTLS capable server, you can use the /server -t switch or prefix the port number with a star sign, eg. *6667.
On connecting to a server, mIRC now sends CAP LS and waits for a reply from the server before logging on. This allows mIRC to determine if STARTTLS is supported and to initiate STARTTLS before logon credentials are sent.
If a server replies with a CAP reply, mIRC processes the CAP reply, initiates STARTTLS if supported, and then logs on. If STARTTLS is not supported, mIRC cancels the connection.
If a server replies with numeric 451 (not registered), indicating it does not recognize CAP, mIRC cancels the connection.
If a server does not reply at all, after a few seconds of waiting, mIRC sends a PING. If a server replies with a PONG or numeric 451, indicating it does not support CAP, mIRC cancels the connection.
10.Added /sockopen -t switch that initiates an SSL negotiation on a
non-SSL connection, eg. as with STARTTLS, and a $sock().starttls identifier.11.Fixed /sockread unsetting local variable instead of setting it to an empty value in some contexts.12.Fixed /whois results being incorrectly displayed in @debug window if it happened to be active in some contexts.13.Fixed SSL port cycling bug.14.Added /sockwrite -a switch that prevents characters in the range 0-255 from being UTF-8 encoded, as long as the line only contains characters in the range 0-255.15.Fixed /server -nm not setting channels list filename correctly when server window is created.16.Changed channels list "hide non-text channels" option to allow
display of double-prefix channels.17.Changed status window titlebar to include port number when not connected so you can see if the next connection attempt will be secure or not.18.Fixed recent server connections not being saved to servers.ini file if the "move to top on connect" option was disabled.19.Changed servers history menu to correctly show the history of servers you have connected to as opposed to servers at the top of the servers list. If you select "clear history", it now clears the history as expected.20.Added ircs:// support to URL catcher.21.Changed log view window, opened by logging dialog, so that it is positioned at the end of the switchbar/treebar window list.
22.Fixed switchbar/treebar display bug that caused windows to be displayed in the wrong order in some situations.23.Changed $sound() to use the TagLib library for improved reading of MP3 and other media file formats.24.Added Shift-F3 key support in Scripts Editor to search backwards through text.25.Fixed timezone bug that caused timezones with non-whole hour offsets to be handled incorrectly.26.Updated manifest files to indicate Windows 8/8.1 compatibility.27.Extended $os identifier to detect 8.1.

14/08/2014 - mIRC v7.36
Changes:1.Fixed mark/copy text bug.2.Updated the replace dialog in the script editor to remember its position for the current mIRC session.3.Fixed /alias incorrectly halting script in some situations.
4.Fixed SSL "Unable to get certificate CRL" bug.5.Reverted change to $sslversion so that it returns only the version number and excludes the "OpenSSL" prefix.6.Updated libraries to OpenSSL 1.0.1i.
04/08/2014 - mIRC v7.35
Changes:1.Fixed slow mark/copy text in windows that contain long lines.2.Fixed listbox lines in Options dialog and other windows being vertically chopped when DPI settings are set to a high value of 200% or more.3.Reverted change to alias/identifiers when called recursively that
caused the script to be halted with a recursion error warning.4.Fixed listbox with checkboxes bug that caused checkboxes to be checked if you scrolled through them with the up/down keys.5.Changed channel folder dialog so that it can now be resized.6.Changed online timer dialog to display information more clearly.7.Added /timer -zN switch to reset online timer, where N = 0 resets current and total time, N = 1 resets current time, and N = 2 resets total time.8.Added $onlineserver to return current server online time and $onlinetotal to return total online time.9.Fixed Shift+Tab beeping when switching to listbox in channel window.10.Fixed $fullscreen not working on a non-primary monitor.11.Updated SSL routines to allow both static and dynamic linking of
OpenSLL with mIRC. mIRC now comes with OpenSSL 1.0.1h linked statically, so SSL is available without needing external DLLS. However, if mIRC finds a newer version of OpenSSL on your system, it will load that automatically.12.Added SSL option that allows you to control whether the internal or external version of OpenSSL is loaded, by adding "load=N" to the [ssl] section in mirc.ini, where N = 0 means "use internal, external if newer", N = 1 means "use external always", and N = 2 means "use internal always". The default is 0. If no external is available, or there is an error loading external, internal is used.

during multiple simultaneous DNS requests in rare contexts.9.Updated libraries to OpenSSL 1.0.1h.10.Added Lock dialog option to disable SendMessage. If cMethod value 16 is used for more useful error messages, returns 64 to indicate SendMessage is disabled. You can use $lock(sendmessage) to check if it is disabled.11.Extended mouse wheel to work in interface elements, such as list boxes in dialogs, under the cursor even if they are not active.12.Added /comlist command to list open com objects.13.Added $servertarget identifier to return address specified in the /server command, which may not be the same as $server.14.Added /play -x switch to treat the first line in the file as plain text even if it is a number.

was already in use by another application.18.Fixed full screen menubar bug that caused the menubar to be displayed incorrectly in a multi-monitor setup in some cases.19.Added /fopen -x switch that opens a file for exclusive access. If another application is using the file, /fopen will fail.20.Fixed /hsave to an INI file not clearing section before writing hash table items to it.21.Changed Options/Display/Buttons option to allow "Small" or "Large". This now changes both the toolbar and switchbar size. The size is scaled based on screen resolution and DPI settings. If installed on a tablet, the large button size is chosen by default.22.Fixed /echo -h bug that caused text not to hard-wrap.23.Fixed $ctime() bug where "nd" values were not being recognized.
24.Updated libraries to PCRE v8.35 and OpenSSL 1.0.1g.25.Fixed $msfile() bug when too many filenames were selected under Windows 7/8.26.Fixed $sdir() bug that caused selected folder not to be scrolled into view when dialog is displayed under Windows 7/8.27.Added math identifiers $atan2(y,x), $hypot(x,y), $log10(x), $sinh(x), $cosh(x), $tanh(x).28.Fixed $onpoly() bug due to rounding errors that may have returned $true in rare cases where two lines are very close.29.Added $intersect(x1,y1,x2,y2,x3,y3,x4,y4,method) identifier that returns the point at which two lines/rays intersect. The method parameter is optional. If not specified, two lines are compared. If specified, it can be lr, rl, rr = line/ray, ray/line, ray/ray.
30.Fixed /drawdot bug that caused it to be drawn slightly off center.31.Added $input() 'f' switch that forces the return of $no/$cancel for edit/combo boxes.32.Fixed SSL certificate password dialog box being displayed multiple times when multiple SSL connections are in progress.33.Added display of "Connect cancelled" message when a connection attempt/retry cycle has ended completely.34.Added a single, standard lock/password dialog for use by all features to replace multiple older implementations.35.Fixed SendMessage() WM_MCOMMAND bug that would have returned a

successful result to the calling application even if the command had in fact failed.36.Added support for encrypting server passwords in servers.ini. Old plain text passwords are converted to the new format.37.Changed List Channels dialog lock password so that a hash is stored in mirc.ini instead of the actual password. The old password is converted to the new format.38.Fixed SSL certificate password dialog box bug that, on being displayed, caused controls to be enabled even if user was currently typing in another window.39.Added another method for detecting Wine, as a backup to the current method.40.Extended SendMessage() to enable executing a command in the context of a remote event. During a remote event, a $eventid identifier is set to a unique value to identify the event. This can be passed to a DLL which can then pass it back to mIRC using:
SendMessage(mHwnd, WM_MCOMMAND, MAKEWPARAM(cMethod, cEventId), cIndex)
This will cause the command/evaluation to execute in the context of the remote event identified by cEventId. If cEventId is 0, this indicates a non-remote event.41.Extended SendMessage() to return information about mIRC using SendMessage(mHwnd, WM_MCOMMAND, -1, lParam) where lParam is -1 to
receive the mIRC version number and -2 to receive the cMethod options that are supported.42.Extended SendMessage() to support cMethod value 16 which causes SendMessage() to return more useful error values instead of just 0 for failure and 1 for success. The return values are: 0 = success, 1 = failure or'd with 2 = bad mapfile name, 4 = bad mapfile size, 8 = bad eventid, 16 = bad server, 32 = bad script.43.Fixed hotlinks display bug that affected how hotlinks were displayed in dialogs.44.Fixed topics, modes, and several other events not including the year that the mode was set.45.Changed About dialog to include check for update button.46.Added installer check for limited user write access to the selected
install folder when the "portable" option is enabled.47.Fixed alias/identifier behaviour inconsistency when a recursive call is attempted which could have led to unexpected results. Both now halt the script with an error message instead.48.Changed installer to include links to license and privacy policy.49.Added CAP userhost-in-names support.50.Changed CAP support so that CAP END will only be sent once the server has replied to all requests with ACK or NAK and requests have been processed.51.Fixed timezone/daylight savings bug due to a hack around a bug in a previous version of the C runtime library.52.Fixed all server messages, such as MOTD, not being timestamped when timestamp option is enabled.
53.Added CAP server-time and znc.in/server-time[-iso] support. Enabled automatically with a CAP request if server lists it in CAP LS. If a server message has a @time prefix with a UTC timestamp, $msgstamp will return this value.54.Extended /echo -tN where N is the UTC value you want to use as the timestamp.55.Added support for ircs:// secure links.56.Improved irc/ircs:// links support in the windows registry by adding the following entries: Class\mIRCURL, Software\Clients\IM\mIRC, and Software\RegisteredApplications\mIRC.

57.Changed /timer to display seconds in /timers and in $timer().delay, if seconds are specified on command line.58.Changed /window -c to not report an error if the non-@window it is closing does not exist.59.Fixed status/channel/query right-click popup menu bug that caused clicked target not setting $1 correctly if /remote is off.60.Fixed an SSL threading bug that may have caused SSL connections to crash in some situations.61.Fixed scripts editor file change monitor bug that may have caused some file change notifications to be missed.62.Changed $ticks so that it uses GetTickCount64() if it is available.63.Fixed /list command bug that caused the channels list to be saved to the wrong filename in the channels folder if you were connected to multiple servers.64.Fixed $read()/play random number bias.65.Changed $shortfn()/$longfn() to use more reliable method.66.Fixed $input() display bug with long strings.
23/05/2013 - mIRC v7.32
Changes:1.Fixed messages being text-wrapped incorrectly in some situations.2.Fixed SSL certificate files specified in SSL options dialog not being loaded and used correctly when connecting to a server.
3.Fixed SSL disconnect bug where if an SSL connection failed, other SSL connections would be disconnected.4.Updated libraries to zlib 1.2.8 and OpenSSL 1.0.1e.

By default, the method is compatible with OpenSSL and uses CBC, key hashing, a random salt and PKCS#5 padding. The identifier format is:
$encode(%var | &binvar, switches, key, [salt | iv])
$decode(%var | &binvar, switches, key, [salt | iv])
Where the switches are:
method: c = cbc or e = ecb encryption (one or the other) key: l = literal key (optional, must be 56 characters) salt/iv: s = salt or i = iv or r = randomiv (all optional) padding: z = zeros, n = one and zeros, p = spaces (all optional)

30/07/2010 - mIRC v7.1
Changes:1.This is the first stable release of the new Unicode version of mIRC.
The project to convert mIRC to Unicode has taken almost two years of development and testing and has required tens of thousands of changes to 150,000+ lines of source code. This has been the most complex and time-consuming update to mIRC since it was created in 1995, when it started out as a non-Unicode, 16-bit, Windows 3.1 application.
Many areas of mIRC have had to be updated or re-written, from file handling to text processing, from display to memory allocation, from server communications to file transfers.
mIRC should now be faster, more stable, and more compatible with the latest versions of Windows, and should be able to better handle the display and input of a variety of languages.
In addition to being converted to Unicode, there are a few other notable changes:
Improved Windows 7 compatibility More reliable INI file handling Faster text display/scrolling Speech support Improved interface design for a number of features Automatic text color correction Menubar Alt key show/hide feature Support for italic text and other font styles Optimized SSL routines
Status window SSL connection icon IPv6 support Improved portable support Persistent channel history Digitally signed executables Automatic splitting of long channel/private messages Full screen display with F11 function key UPnP support Many bug fixes And more
For a full version history of mIRC v7.x development, please see the list of changes starting with v7.0.

12.Added /bwrite -t switch, interprets text value as plain text and does not evaluate &binbar variables.
28/05/2010 - mIRC v7.04
Changes:1.Added UPnP support. The Ports dialog allows you to enable UPnP support for retrieving your external IP address, the identd server, DCC connections, and the DCC server. The first three options are enabled by default.
mIRC marks UPnP ports that it opens as "mIRC". It closes UPnP ports the moment they are no longer needed.
If mIRC is connecting to multiple servers at the same that use both IPv4 and IPv6, the UPnP port for the identd server will only be able to handle either IPv4 or IPv6 at any one time, since a UPnP port can only be bound to one address.
If you make any changes to the UPnP options in the Ports dialog, mIRC performs a quick check to see if UPnP is available and will warn you if it is not.
2.Added /socklisten -p switch to enable UPnP support for a listening
socket.3.Changed hotlink feature to handle more formats.4.Fixed /clear -g switch bug.5.Optimized display routine to use bitmap caching more efficiently.6.Changed the way a server connection is closed after sending /quit to make disconnection more robust/graceful.7.Added check for empty servers list. If servers list is empty, mIRC looks for the "defaults" folder and copies the servers.ini from there to the data folder.

Changes:
1.Changed DCC Send/Get windows to show long progress bar when window is maximized.2.Changed DCC Send/Get switchbar buttons to display progress bar in black during transfer and grey when finished.3.Fixed /fseek line matching bugs.4.Optimized BOM-checking in file routines, should have minimal impact on read/write speed now.5.Fixed $dns().ip bug when resolving an IP address.6.Changed Control+N back to shortcut for channel switching.7.Added "Split long channel/query messages" option to Messages dialog. If a message is long enough that it might be chopped by the maximum server line length, it is sent as mutliple lines.8.Fixed font bug with reading font settings from mirc.ini.
9.Optimized display routine, should be faster in some situations.10.Changed richedit editbox support back to riched20.dll since it seems to be faster and more reliable overall.11.Optimized the way scripts are loaded into script editor editbox.12.Fixed INI file handling bug when reading section/item/data that are enclosed in quotes.13.Fixed hotlink feature not handling single-word hostnames.14.Changed $utfencode/$utfdecode to return input text if they are unable to encode/decode the text instead of returning an error.15.Changed the way the file routines set end-of-file and error, should

01/05/2010 - mIRC v7.02
Changes:1.Added Unicode/UTF-8 BOM support to file routines. This applies to all files that are read or written as text, including INI files.2.Changed DCC Send/Get windows to allow full filename to be viewed when window is resized.3.Changed DCC Get to open download file with exclusive write access.4.Added support for detecting Wine so that mIRC can use alternative code for features that need it. Around fifteen separate workarounds were implemented. Features that could not be made to work reliably (richedit editbox support and playing mp3 and mid files) are now disabled.5.Changed mouse wheel scroll method in the script editor editbox to allow faster/smoother scrolling.6.Fixed system shell DDE messages bug.7.Changed font-linking implementation slightly, should be faster and support more characters.
8.Added support for /dns $server to fill $serverip for SOCKS5 users, though note that this results in a DNS leak.9.Fixed treebar background update bug.10.Optimized display routine, should now be faster when displaying control codes.11.Fixed $regml().pos bug.12.Added Names dialog back to Display options dialog.13.Fixed /sockudp -k bug.14.Fixed line colors parsing bug when reloading log files.15.Fixed query flood check bug.
15/04/2010 - mIRC v7.01
Changes:1.Changed the way fonts are set for editboxes in windows and in the script editor. This should resolve issues for users who are seeing the font change when they enter text.2.Changed the foregound/background color correction feature so that it no longer applies if a ^K background color is specified.3.Fixed /filter gpf bug.4.Fixed /fopen gpf bug.5.Changed $input() icons default sound behavior.6.Fixed text display bug where last character was not entirely visible in some situations with certain fonts.7.Changed toolbar and switchbar to not display separators when background picture is used.
8.Fixed timestamp bug where the timestamp was not being displayed if a Unicode character was used in the format string.9.Changed numeric 451 "You have not registered" message for the "CAP" request to no longer be displayed when connecting to a server.10.Fixed DDE support.

02/04/2010 - mIRC v7.0
Changes:1.mIRC is now a Unicode application.2.mIRC now uses its own custom INI routines to ensure more reliable INI file handling. They should work almost identically to the standard Windows INI routines.3.Changed the way microsoft agent is detected by checking for folder instead of loading agent to cater for Windows 7 issue.4.Added a bitmap cache to speed up window text display. Depending on the font you are using, your cleartype settings, and/or your cpu speed, you should see a significant increase in display speed of text in all windows.5.Fixed script editor not filling as much of the editbox buffer as it could (up to maximum size of 500k) when reading a file.6.Updated to PCRE library v8.02 and enabled Unicode/UTF-8 support.

-s = speed (0 to 100) -p = pitch (0 to 100) -c = clear all queued lines -l = apply lexicon settings in speech dialog. -u = apply option settings in speech dialog
You can use $speak(N) to list all lines that are currently queued for speaking through the /speak command. If N = 0, returns total number of queued lines.
16.Extended maximum incoming server line length from 600 to 1024 bytes.17.Fixed default notify sounds not being saved with relative path.18.Fixed popup loading bug when a file contains empty lines.19.Fixed on CLOSE event bug with status window requiring * prefix.20.Extended on CLOSE event to work with channels.21.Changed on OPEN/CLOSE events to handle parameters like other similar events.

to enable portable mode more easily on usb drives.24.Changed mouse wheel routine to correctly handle faster/slower scrolling.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.26.Fixed listbox item height in Control/Color/Highlight dialogs.27.Fixed text display being clipped incorrectly when using certain fonts.28.The Channels List window now updates the horizontal scrollbar on-the-fly to avoid the display freeze after listing a large number of channels.29.Fixed some controls not being disabled in Lock dialog when lock is enabled.30.When clicking reset button in Colors dialog, colors are now reset to the most recent active settings for that theme.31.mIRC now skips sending "mode +i" on connect if it has already been set automatically by the server.32.Changed the design of some of the dialogs in the Options dialog, the DCC Send/Get dialogs, and others.33.mIRC no longer requires Full Name and Email Address to be filled in the connect dialog and sends default values if left empty.34.On connecting to a server, if both nick and alternative are in use
mIRC appends a random number to your nickname and tries again.35.Changed /debug windows to no longer interpret colors.

the menbuar is disabled.44.Renamed "Firewall" dialog "Proxy". Replaced /firewall command with /proxy although /firewall is still supported.45.mIRC now disables the proxy if it is enabled in the proxy dialog but no address is provided and a SOCKS_HOST environment variable does not exist.46.Added menbuar auto-show/hide feature that displays the menubar when you press the Alt key and hides it afterwards.47.Keyboard focus now automatically switches to the treebar if all other windows are minimized.48.Fixed PCRE gpf bug when expression results in heavy recursion.49.Changed switchbar to display transparent buttons when a background picture is selected.
50.Added support for all available font styles, such as italic and semi-bold, in font dialog.51.Added support for Control+I key combination to make italic text using control code 29.52.Added support for DLLs that use Unicode routines.

23/25
DWORD mVersion; HWND mHwnd; BOOL mKeep; BOOL mUnicode; } LOADINFO;
53.Added SendMessage WM_MEVALUATE/WM_MCOMMAND support for Unicode. By default mIRC assumes that mapped file data is ANSI for backwards compatibility. However an application can "or" the value 8 in the cMethod parameter to specify Unicode data.54.Changed display behavior for a number of dialogs, such as the DCC Send/Get dialogs, so that buttons are now disabled for a short time when the dialogs are displayed to prevent accidental typing. If the user is typing, the buttons remain disabled until the user stops.
Added a 'b' switch to $input() and an "option disable" property to custom dialogs that enables this behavior.
55.Fixed treebar display bug when displaying DCC window names.56.Changed script editor Order dialog to automatically select the active script in the listbox on opening.57.Updated editbox in all windows and script editor to use richedit 4.1 msftedit.dll for improved Unicode support.

first numeric to prevent logon issues in some situations.65.Changed design of the File Type warning dialog, now clearer and also shows the file extension that was ignored.66.Optimized the way line indentation works, such as for /echo -iN, and other displayed lines.67.Improved tab and indent spacing measurement method for both fixed and non-fixed width fonts.68.Improved text-wrapping at whole word boundaries, and now wraps at both spaces and commas.69.Numeric 422 "MOTD file is missing" message is no longer displayed when first connecting to a server.70.Fixed proxy errors not being displayed correctly in some situations.71.Added a bind listbox to the Connect/Options/Ports dialog that lists
all active networks interfaces for easy selection. It still allows you to enter an IP address as well.72.Updated /dns command, now multi-threaded, resolves concurrently, and can return both IPv4 and IPv6 addresses. By default, /dns only returns IPv4. You can use the switches -46 to return a combination of IPv4 and IPv6 addresses.73.Added support for IPv6 connections. By default, mIRC will always use IPv4, so IPv6 support must be explicitly enabled using one of these methods:

1) Enable IPv6 support in the Connect/Options/Ports dialog. This allows mixed IPv4 and IPv6 connections, with IPv6 taking priority in DNS resolution. This means that if you try to connect to a server that has both IPv6 and IPv4 addresses, mIRC will try IPv6 first.
2) The bind option in the Connect/Options/Ports dialog. If you specify an IPv4 or IPv6 adapter/address, DNS resolution and all connections will be made based on the adapter/address type. If you explicitly specify an IP address for a connection, such as a /server or DCC connection, it overrides this setting.
3) The /server command with switches -46 to force DNS resolution to return either IPv4, IPv6, or both. If you specify an IP address, it overrides the switches. The server window will use the requested DNS method for all subsequent connections until you change it with the /server command.
Note: in order to use IPv6, both your version of Windows and your Internet connection must support IPv6.
74.Added $iptype(text) identifier, returns "ipv4" or "ipv6" if text is is a valid IP address format. With IPv6 addresses, the properties .compress and .expand can be used.75.Added cue text (optional) to Connect dialog for user name and email
address.76.Extended $portfree(port,ip) so that you can specify an ip address. If not specified, all active interfaces are checked as before. An adapter name can also be used instead of an ip address.77.Added $bindip(N|ip) identifier. If N is specified, lists active network adapters with properties .name, .ip, .loopback. If an ip address is specified, returns best adapter for connecting to that ip address.78.Updated to OpenSSL 0.9.8n library.79.Updated installer to offer a portable install option that can be used to run mIRC on a USB flash drive.80.Added support for whois numeric 729.81.Added "Invalid certificate" disconnect message in the event of an
SSL connection failing due to an invalid certificate. If there is a DNS pool, mIRC will now continue to retry the connection.82.Changed /localinfo to report an error if you try to use an invalid switch. Also fixed /localinfo not setting/saving the local info results correctly across server windows.83.Fixed hotlink shift-key display bug.84.Fixed logfile bug when window is switched between MDI/desktop.85.Added $file().sig property, checks digital signature of a file.86.Added check for foreground/background colors in control codes in text. If they are the same, the foreground color is changed to ensure the text is visible.87.Changed color dialog behavior: if you delete all schemes, the default schemes are added back to the list.
88.Changed position of history menu in file and favorites menus.89.Added /close -t switch, closes all status windows. If used with -i switch, closes only if not connected/connecting to a server.90.Channels history is now saved across sessions to the [chanhist] section in mirc.ini.91.Fixed tips display bug that caused tip width to be smaller than necessary, shortening the title text.92.Fixed SSL warning dialog bug, was not showing the actual error message in some cases when a certificate error was detected.93.Fixed /var gpf bug.
