Moreover, the scripts are not actually being modified, or if they are, they shouldn't be. That is: if the files' last-modified time changes, that would mean that mIRC erroneously modifies them as a result of the time shift. If the files' last-modified time does not change, then mIRC is drawing the wrong conclusion based on the time shift. Either way, it is a bug in mIRC.

It's an ancient one, too, but a fix would still be much appreciated. Hashing the files should not be a required part of any solution, either (although doing so may be beneficial in some other use cases).

Just FWIW: it is possible to hold the Esc key to get rid of them all in one go (after all, the files haven't actually changed).
