- 2 - Installing mIRC
Run the program you just downloaded, following the on-screen instructions and choosing your installation directory ("c:\mirc\" is the default, but many may want to change this to "c:\program files\mirc\" or similar). Once this is done, run the newly installed mIRC through either the Start Menu or desktop shortcuts (if you didn't create any shortcuts, you'll have to go to the directory where you installed mirc and run mirc32.exe).
