A new feature in mIRC allows you to minimize mIRC and lock it with a password for strange eyes. If you control-minimize mIRC (keep the Ctrl-key pressed down while minimizing mIRC), it will be locked with your password. If no password was set previously mIRC will ask you for one. There are three types of scripts in mIRC.; aliases, popups, and remotes. Each one is comprised of different parts and has its own tab in the scripts editor. Aliases are user-defined commands that stand for a set of one or more commands. Aliases are usually used to simplify everyday IRC tasks, such as identifying your nickname.

MIRC welcomes new senior enlisted leader Nov. 9, 2020 - Military Intelligence Readiness Command welcomed its newest senior enlisted leader to the command team, Sept. King found his calling and honed his voice as a leader. MIRC Scripts.Com - Collection of Scripts and Bots for mIRC Version 5.5 and greater. Ok to bigsteves comment with that version of mirc you cannot reset it like that they kahled has upped the security on that version for the trial resetting haha. But for old versions of irc you could use this version of it which is a bit better after loading this into a new remotes file type /trial after that its all set and will do the work.

Alternative clients include:
