Bug ID: 55406
           Summary: mIRC hangs on receiving a new PM
           Product: Wine
           Version: 8.12
          Hardware: x86-64
                OS: Linux
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: P2
         Component: -unknown
          Assignee: [e-mail]
          Reporter: [e-mail]
      Distribution: ---

This problem started once I upgraded mIRC to version 7.74.

When someone sends me a PM and this causes mIRC to open a new window, mIRC
hangs entirely, and the process keeps using a lot of CPU according to htop.

Only thing I can do at that point is kill the process.

The problem doesn't occur if I already have a query window open with the person
sending me a message.

An easy way to reproduce this is to connect to an IRC server, then from the
status window:
/msg <my_own_nick> hello

That will open a query window to yourself which triggers this behaviour as
well.

This problem occurs on two different Linux installations I tried, one with Wine
8.12 and one with Wine 8.0.2.
