Lot's of people reported PC freezes when starting WinVROC

Hi all, I believe I found the reason why WinVROC freezes the PC from
time to time, it's related to the IRC channel for the CHAT.

I did a small experiment, turned off chat when entering WinVROC, and
problem is inexistant. As soon as I trigger the chat button (to access
the IRC chat room), the PC freezes.

I have no cure at the moment, but I have few questions, does people
accessing the IRC chat on port 6667 are having problems with IRC client
? Can we try another
port to access the chat room in WinVROC ?

I do not have Lawrence Holbert email address, I'm sure he would like to
know why
WinVROC is freezing up.

I also would like to know who gets the PC FREEZE and what IP address you
have ? (don't give the entire IP, just the first digits like :
24.200.xxx.xxx)

thanks

Eric

yep, same here: disabled chat and presto: no more freezes ...

no problems with same settings and same channels over mIrc ...

I don't think it depends on the IP-adress as I've tried different ISPs.

mine doesnt freeze, just gives me the blue screen of death, i hit enter and
then have to reboot to get access to anything on the net.
  Doesnt always happen btw. Seems like its just when races are going to
appear.
