best irc client with good scripts available?

Can anyone suggest which irc client I should use...

Need to be able to setup some kind of fserve on it and have an autofile receive script or something that's not too buggy

Thanks in advance

I'll try that. tnx

can you suggest a script that's not too heavy on resources. I used something called invisible before for mirc but it took a long time to boot up and loaded lots of stuff that I didn't really need. Just need something simple,

Thanks again

Get them from there:

Well mirc worked just fine in wine. Will stick with it for the meantime because it has the most scripts available. Thanks
