I just installed mIRC onto my laptop, but I can't remember how to stop the ip from showing up along with the username. This is what I'm currently getting:
* Connecting to irc.dejatoons.net (6667)
-
-betamax.dejatoons.net- *** Looking up your hostname...
-
-betamax.dejatoons.net- *** Found your hostname
-
Closing Link: Yameneko[ipXXX] (Hostile username. Please use only 0-9 a-z A-Z _ - and . in your username.)
-
* Disconnected
-
* Connect cancelled
Any help would be greatly apprecated.

No, the Yameneko part is the username, but the rest isn't.

I realized what it was. The Email box had an unaccepted character in it. I still suck at typing with a laptop keyboard. XD

Thanks everyone.
