What's best IRC Program for using Chat on site

[Bluesurfer]

I use Windows 10 Internet Explorer for the web and am not interested in switching to another browser for chat (or frankly for any other internet use) soooooo… what is the best IRC Chat program to use with this site?  Any suggestions will be greatly appreciated but would prefer not to have to fork out a bunch of money for the software.  Thanks in advance to anyone offering advice   :hiya::thx:

If I click on  #Gaytorrent.ru on the Chat page I am asked to open an IRC client and offered a nickname without installing anything as far as I know

Thanks but this is greyed out when I go to chat and I have set up the site under my security to allow java. Not sure what else is needed.
1.  Do you use Internet Explorer
2. What info do I need for my IRC program ie: Host Name etc.  Frankly I'm LOST :blondmom:

Are you sure the link in the line:

Our official IRC-Channel is #Gaytorrent.ru is greyed out? Click on the white #Gaytorrent.ru link

If you need more info check out https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mibbit for what Mibbit, which is where you should be taken, is about.

For me, IRC is a no-no, never really understood it

Thanks cannonmc for the link and explanation.  Finally got my IRC program setup and working.  :bananaw: :thx:

Perhaps you should explain it to me… on the other hand

For cannonmc: since you seem to be using Firefox, check out the add-on Chatzilla. Pretty straightforward to use.

beep, thanks very much for the tip. Actually Mibbit works for me - I'm just not very keen on IRC itself
