Some networks keep you from being able to download files with certain extensions for a very good reason. Very often, virii are sent this way.

You can still download EXEs and ZIPs if you do one thing. The DCCALLOW command enables you to manually select a user that can send these files to you.

For example:
I want to download Flash5.exe from BBR-Member. To do this, I would have to type this into my mIRC window: /dccallow +BBR-Member
Now I notify him that he has been added to the DCCALLOW list, and he can send away.

This is the basic command for DCCALLOW: /dccallow +((nick))
