Just curious... I remember a news story about mIRC a while back and they interviewed some college chick and she referenced mIRC pronounced as "merk".
 
Question: How do you pronounce mIRC?
Answer: I pronounce each letter, m-I-R-C. However, it's fine to pronounce it as 'mirk'. Often during a conversation I'll switch between both pronunciations, depending on how quickly I want to get my point across!

merk... murk... I've always spelled it out. Seeing how mIRC is just a client... do you pronounce IRC as "erk".. or "irk"???? 😱
