Welcome to this guide on setting up mIRC.
mIRC is by far the best program for IRC around for your PC however the inital setting up although simple can look quite confusing. So i've created this to help you through the inital setup to get on to #WG so you can on connect talk to your clan mates.

Getting mIRC loaded to your computer:

• First thing you need to do it go to Mirc: http://www.mirc.co.uk/ (http://www.mirc.co.uk/)
• Click Download mIRC on the left hand side of the screen
• Pick Closest location to you (Make sure its the latest version.)
• Follow all the instructions(just like downloading any regular program.)

Getting Started on your settings:

• When you start up mIRC you will see a box asking you to register, just close it.
• After you click Continue, up at the top left hand corner of the screen, you will see something like a folder with a hammer next to it, click it.
• This is your options menu, first thing you should come across is a window with some blank spots that you need to fill in.
  
  
  
  • Nickname – Runescape Nickname
  • Alternative – Runescape Nickname|away
  • ignore the others if you can. If not fill in.
• Then click Options on this and tick Use Invisible Mode.
  
  
  
  • DO NOT CLOSE OPTIONS.
• Click on Servers
  
  
  
  • Then you will have to scroll down the folders until you find SwiftIRC
  • Click it and then and press select.
  • This should bring you back to the inital screen. You started on. This time press Connect.
• A screen should pop up with a white back ground and text on it.
  
  
  
  • When the text has stop coming down type /ns register password password email email, With your Password and Email being you personal password for your account and an email address that you use for example /ns register BobfixesAxes BobfixesAxes [email protected] [email protected]
  • Press Enter and it should send a message to the server and create your account.
• Next you need to identify with this account
  
  
  
  • /Ns id Password (the one that you have just created)

Congratz you are a member of the server.

Setting up your Perform
This section outlines perform, which makes connecting easier.

• With the options menu still open, click on Options (in the drop down under Connect.)
• When that comes up Click on the Button that says Perform
• A new window should come up from there click add right next to the drop down menu.
• Find SwiftIRC and select it.
• After that click the drop down menu and select SwiftIRC
• In that box you should type the stuff in mine, dont forget to put YOUR nick and password


/nick (Runescape Nickname)
/ns identify Password (the one you previously used)
/join #wg_lobby

     7. After that, check  the box Enable perform on connect
     8. Press okay and you are all done.

Now when you open up IRC you should be brought to #WG_lobby


Tips:
1.Check of the following boxes in Options on the on the left side of the options menu(The 1 under connect ): Connect on Start up and Reconnect on disconnection.
2.Dont ever pay the IRC menu that pops up when you first load up mIRC it may take awhile for the Continue Button to became Clickable, but only a few seconds.
