Not possible.  The Nick was used to find the TIdIRCUser instance in the
first place, so it has to be valid.

Please show your actual code.  An AV occurs when you access invalid memory.
The only way that can happen when accessing the Nick property is if ATarget
is invalid to begin with.  Sounds like you not checking ATarget for NULL
before trying to access it.

That usually means thatyou are accessing a NULL pointer.

The user probably wasn't found in the Users list to begin with, so ATarget
was NULL and you did not check for that.
