Can't load any scripts in ircII

Well, I can't figure this out, so I thought it couldn't hurt to ask around anywhere I could...

So I have ircII-2.8.2 (yea, it's old but I have a few psychological issues and one of them prevents me from wanting to change IRC clients) and I'm trying to load scripts via the /load command, as well as from inside the .ircrc file automatically on ircII startup, but no scripts load either way.

This is the error message that shows up in the ircII screen:

Code:
*** /home/guitarscn/.irc/script.irc is executable and may not be loaded

This happens with every single script I try, including some well-known popular ones and all of that.

What does this error mean? Why won't any scripts load?

Not knowing IRC I would say that this error is pretty self explanatory. Try chmod'ing one of the script files to be 0664 (rw rw r). and then try loading it again.
