Reported by sdd via IRC on 6th Jan 2016
Also message reads:

---

And The script keeps running endlessly long after all clones are identified, this is a big nono.

When you first run, it hangs the whole KVIrc while its doing initial something, you cant do anything, cant change windows, channels, type, --anything is like frozen, then once its finished KVIrc is once again usable.

You run it in one network in one channel it transverses multiple networks and prints in console multiple entries that read:

[07:44:25] hell_clonescan is an unknown server command
[07:45:01] hell_clonescan is an unknown server command
[07:45:20] hell_clonescan is an unknown server command
[07:45:21] hell_clonescan is an unknown server command
[07:48:14] hell_clonescan is an unknown server command
[07:48:15] hell_clonescan is an unknown server command

I can confirm this script keeps running after its been stopped and uninstalled / removed manually...

It keeps running even after kvirc has been stopped/restarted without it being called or activated or even existing in classes/aliases

The script is at best broken and should be marked broken by placing a file inside that reads broken do not use.

Or you could fix it.

[un1versal]

Well if I knew how to fix everything it would all be done...

Have no doubt about that statement, scripts and kvirc bugs alike and everything else in between.
