Thats the creator of mIRC. Here you see that mIRC is shareware and should be payed after 30 days. But don't worry after 30 days you have to wait 2-3 seconds after you can close the dialoge and continue using mirc. There is no need to pay money except you want to support him.

In the top left you will see the "Options" window.
1. Here you do not have to enter your full real name. You can use your nickname.
