You try to say that matching a '?' would be equal an "immence cpu"
work to calculate all possible permutations. Well.. correct me if I'm
wrong but it should not be more than a ++ operation for your string
pointer - one cpu cycle. Saying this and replying to my *personal*
e-mail to the list you really proved you don't deserve your signature.

case closed.

"?" is a well known wildcard for a single character incase you didn't know you tool. If you read my e-mail instead of blaintantly flaming you would have seen I was mentioning my methods of what I did in my ban script because mIRC didn't seem to count "?"'s in it's iswm function as far as I could get to work last night. I for the time being changed them to "*"'s as I DIDN'T want to match every character for every "?". However once again the "?" is a well know single character wildcard.
