I cannot reproduce on a clean install.
It all started because someone on IRC asked for a way to remove the color of the item in the tree/switchbar (window -g) and he also wanted to stop the flash (taskbar + blinking icon).
So I started fooling around with these timers above, it wasn't working, I also tried to /flash -r1 (after the first /flash) but it would keep flashing indefinitely. In the meantime the user tells me 'thanks, window -g is all I needed'. He came up with this on text scenario and indeed, after trying it on my mIRC, !stop would stop flashing.
Forgot to mention, the user on IRC was on 7.41 and using Wine, he confirmed it does stop the flash though, probably a Wine issue then.
