  • 1. Is this a bug report or a feature suggestion?
    If the answer is "yes", then you should post this on http://bugs.unrealircd.org

    2. Have I checked the FAQ?
    Before you post here, you should check the FAQ. The FAQ contains answers to some of the most common questions we receive. The FAQ can be found at http://www.vulnscan.org/UnrealIrcd/faq/

    3. Have I tried searching the forums?
    Usually, when you have a problem, you aren't the only one who has experienced it. Before you post a new question, you should Search the forum to see if it has already been answered.
After that, the next thing is make sure you give as much detail as you possibly can! Make sure to include the version of Unreal you are running as well as the OS you use. And try to be as descriptive as possible when describing your problem.
You said it is giving you an error?

What might that error be, exactly?

If I'm right, click with the right button of your mouse on the icon and choose to run it as an Administrator. Should work.

I got the same permission problems. Since its Vista move the unrealircd folder to C:/ or your desktop. You probably put it in Program Files right?
