It might have something to do with the font you're using in your mIRC Editor. Go into your popup editor (Alt-P) On the menu bar File Font... Select the font and attributes you wish to use while editing mIRC scripts. Click the OK button to save your changes and return to the editor. I prefer FixedSys 9 because everything lines up nicely, but that might not be a good choice for you if you cannot see some of the symbols that FixedSys doesn't show except as little black boxes.

It will show up in the edit box, but when you press enter it will show "[07:25:37] <Collective> ?" in the channel, and when you press up to get the previous line typed it has replaced the heart with a beautiful "?". It seems to just be the way mIRC works, unfortunately.
