I have the latest version, but it crashes every time I try to open Output to alter or add an alias or trigger. In fact, it crashes any time I try to do anything with my preferences.

In my downloads folder. That's where I had my last version, too.

Also, yeah, sorry. It is version 5.03. I tried it on a previous version, too, and it still won't work.

That's odd. What version of Windows are you using? Do you get any other messages? When I make my entire folder read-only I see this when attempting to change a global option:

Message reads: "Mush client has stopped working. Windows is checking for a solution." It doesn't find a solution and closes.

Try moving the MUSHclient folder to the desktop and see if that fixes it.

There should be a way to reset the timer if someone with thousands of posts replies to the thread...

There is a link you can click next to the user's name "Mark as trusted", Fiendish. You could always click that. :)
