Thanks for this, I appreciate it but it is mainly about the learning side of things, not so much just having my version changed

Yes this is possible and from what the readme says that comes with the DLL posted above, this is how it works. Something like this below.
Code:
ctcp *:VERSION:{
ctcpreply $nick VERSION Whatever IRC Client. | halt
}
However the readme in that DLL says copyright 2000 - 2002, which implies it was created in 2002. Also it says in the readme that the version of mIRC is v6.01
The current version of mIRC is v6.17 it has either been changed on purpose to stop version spoofing or there is a bug. Because the first time you version someone using a script like this it says.

If you do it again quite quickly it seems it sends only the "Whatever IRC Client." reply, but if you wait a short while and do it again. It will send the real version reply and fake version reply.

Well I'm a little closer thanks to 0KRam, I guess this might be a bit more difficult than I thought though.
