When a file transfer is completed, or a chat session ends, you can make mIRC close the window automatically, as well as beep to audibly indicate the end of a dcc session. The /dcc nick -sgcf command allows you to change the nickname associated with a dcc send/get/chat/fserve and is used in the dcc remote event definition. By default, mIRC will pop up a dialog asking you if you would like to accept the chat request, however you can make mIRC automatically accept the chat request, or just ignore all incoming chat requests. This option determines how mIRC behaves if someone sends you a chat request.

Note: Please read about the dangers of Accepting Files on IRC before you accept files.

If you append :network to the address, where network is the network name, it will make the trust item network-specific. You can also use the /dcc trust command to change the trust list. This section allows you to add a list of trusted nicknames, addresses, or user levels, from which mIRC will automatically accept dcc sends. In the case where you have turned on the Auto-get file option, and you already have a file of the same name in your download folder, you have the option of mIRC popping up a dialog to ask if you want to accept the file, or to automatically resume or overwrite the existing file. If you select resume then mIRC will attempt to negotiate a transfer resume to get the remaining part of the file. If you choose to overwrite the file then the whole file will be downloaded from the beginning and any existing file of the same name is erased. You then have the option to either overwrite the file, resume the transfer, or rename the file. If someone tries to send you a file that already exists in your get directory then you will be shown a warning that the file exists.

If you choose to accept the file, mIRC will ask the sender to begin the file transfer, at which point you should begin receiving the file. If you select Ignore All then all incoming dcc send requests are ignored. By default, mIRC will pop up a dialog asking you if you want to accept the file, however if you select the Auto-get file option then mIRC will automatically accept the file. This option determines how mIRC behaves when someone tries to send you a file. DCC allows you to connect directly to another IRC client, instead of going through the IRC Network, to Send and Get files, and to Chat privately over a more secure connection.
