I would have used mIRC if the font isn't that horrible...
so I wandered around, X-chat, Exursions, vIRC, hydraIRC, gaim (yes gaim

)
and finally stopped at kvIRC (
http://www.kvirc.net/ ).
HydraIRC isn't bad except that it doesn't support proxy, which is what I need to connect from school (yah, my school network sucks ) , so kvIRC it is then.
Btw, where's the IRC channel for this forum?
I can't find it anywhere (should be put on top of the page imho

)
...
peace y'all !
