I doubt you will get help with changing it here. You can see the license agreement by typing /help license agreement New username: hixxy

As tidy said though, it's seen as very lame, and I know several channels which will ban lame scripts (usually Turkish by the way), which delete/change the version reply. Regards, Mentality/Chris
