    "Good IRC chat... but highly complicated"

    November 7, 2005  |   By KillingGranny

    Pros

    Basically, the only good IRC chat unfortunatly. You would swear that IRC was designed around this program. With features out the door, this gives you everything you need if you want to chat on IRC. Pretty much the golden standard using IRC too. With enough options to customize it for you, this is the only program you want if you want IRC, whether you're a beginner or expert.

    Cons

    Heavily confusing and cluttered. Designed for experts too, it may put some newer people off. And it's just plain ugly. No real design or nice layout, absolutly no themes. This is meant to get serious. Reminds me of the old DOS prompt. (Unfortunatly, programs such as Trillian don't offer the ease of use and features that mIRC does. Shame.)

    Basically, the only program to use for IRC. However cluttered and ugly, it does what it says it does.
