It's not a mistake for an AV scanner to detect mIRC as riskware. The simple fact is that there are several trojans out there that use mIRC as part of their payload and so it's presence could be indicative of a trojan infection. The real issue here is trying to get AV scanner users to actually read the messages they get from their software and to use a bit of common sense, ie. to only worry about having riskware on their computer if they know they never installed it.
