Well besides that does anyone have experience installing xchat new versions that are available for download?

Thanks for the link though i will read up on it later but in the mean time a little help would be great with my current situation because it never did this in the previous install of 1.8.9 that is why i am wondering if it is only me who is having this problem.

xchat 1.9.x need gtk 2.0.x and glib 2.0.x so you have to update all gtk/glib libraries from ftp.gtk.org
