Scripts removed after installing MSN for mIRC?

Hi all.
I'm a bit sad after installing MSN for mIRC 4.0. I wanted to try 4.0 (used 3.70 before).
What I did was opening the script editor and loaded the install script. When the script asks to close mirc, I confirmed. But when I started mIRC again, most of my scripts appeared empty! I checked the files in the mirc folder itself, and all script files in the mirc rootdirectory were 0 bytes. Only the scripts in subdirectory's are still there. Unfortunatly I didn't made a backup of my scripts (shame on me!), so everything is gone. I really have no idea how this happened.
I'm using an older version of mirc, 6.17, running on windows xp servicepack 2.
Maybe it can be caused by the older version of mirc? In the msn zipfile were some dll's that allready exists and I overwrited them, probably a bit stupid of me to.
Well, I just wanted to tell you what happend, maybe you can't do anything with it, maybe you can. I'm not sure if the msn script itself is the blame, I looked into the install script and didn't see weird things, but I tought you should know it anyway.
