Oops must pass on this word.. english is not what i master best.

however, i tried to make myself a picture:
if you mean $, it's free.
if you mean effort, depends on what you expect from irc, knowing you as a witt bastard ;-) and having some knowledge in IT security, you will love it!

Hey Joe,

Word of warning:

Having had several years experience in both java and IRC chat as an op (moderator) - be very careful, particularly with irc.

Once you let mirc or the like through your firewall, you leave yourself wide open to a whole host of nasties and beleive me, especially when it comes to mirc, there are a whole tub full of them knocking around for public consumption. Whilst most are just "kick" toys, I've come across a few that can do permanent damage to your hardware, never mind software.

I personally only use java chat (that's when I have time to chat at all) these days as it's a lot more secure.

If you need to know anymore feel free to e-mail me. (flightsimvetclub@hotmail.com)
