There are many scripts (that can be found via the resources on this website, here in the 'Scripting section' that will on start/whatever, check if a newer version exists and tell you, some might even download the actual install file, however i doubt any will actually install it.

Due to the fact it would take a while to "navigate" the install and also its recommended previous versions of mIRC not be running while installing newer ones (due to the fact they use the same directory), a "script" couldnt do it.

A batch file, can be run, but would only be able to load the install file, not complete it and mirc can do this anyway, via /run and simply /exit after it.. so that wouldnt work.
