Oh wow, you know what James? I think that was actually me! I back up my
stuff, and since mirc is self-contained, I just saved the whole folder, so I
wouldn't have to write every script, and alias over again. I think I
checked that particular box you're referring to, not knowing what it did.
Thanks a lot.

The MIRC problem stems from the options that are set in the app
itself. Go into the options dialogue box, and the check the "use
multiline editboxes" option. It was probably already turned on in the
other version of windows, possibly by someone else. That will solve
that problem. I don't know about outlook, though, as I don't use it.
