Could someone post a link for good software to use irc.(i deleted mirc. in frustration!) and if its not 2 much an idiots guide to the commands used in irc.

i have a good pc with a good connection and i want to put it to good use and be able to obtain the latest stuff for sharing. PLEASE FORGIVE MY IGNORANCE ON THE MATTER

You have to make sure the person or AI, watever it is :huh: , usually a username...always take note of the topic, it tells you who you should get it off. And then, I get a bit uncertain here, you nid to CTCP that user, then trigger the filename...then it's like a file transfer from there on...

THis is not a proven solution, or whether anything I wrote above is correct :blink:, but it should be sumthing like that tho...
