This looks very slick! I've not used the IRC network for a few years now, but I think I might have a reason to have a look! =P Looks good, will have a tinker and be back for the vote!

Cheers mate!

This project is a direct rip off from Cabral IRC, yet they claim it as their own. Shame on them.

Maybe if you read the description you would have seen that

if you share the source code on a public website, and someone takes it and claims it as their own (even if they asked the original author or not) thats what WILL happen. If you don't want your source "ripped" then don't share it :)

as to the code here...it is fairly advanced and serious load of custom control including the custom RTF/text window control. The only problem with this is that the text often doesn't wrap properly (ie: it cuts the line too far back to put it on the next line leaving a huge gap on the right hand side). I can only put this down to the stripped length of the line rather than the control coded length of the line. I wouldn't say that this was the fastest VB irc client either, but it does however seem to work flawlessly. I don't like the use of the webbrowser control on the background of the main form to advertise your website and is also unnecessary as a simple hotlink on the about dialog will do. Another suggestion if you want to make this externally independent is to remove the winsock control and use an API class such as SocketMaster or CSocket on its own. The only dependency you'll have then, is ms common controls 6.

I will look into the wrapping problem. As for the website in the background I felt it was needed because it is something other IRC clients do not have and I was trying to do something different. Furthermore my website is the homepage of other software programs that I want people to try, people often download a program and never return to the developers website, shame huh.

As for Winsock, I have tried other methods, winsock seems to work best in VB6, as api causes the program to hang if the server isn't responding. Furthermore this program is currently being redone in Visual Basic 2005. Go to this page to see its progress..
