Who stole my Alpaca!
IRC doesn't work on any client on my Ubuntu box (No it doesnt on Windows either) . Any alternative methods to bypass this problem? Ive been looking for a CGI alternative but can't seem to find an alternative.

Oddly enough I managed to connect after using port number 8002. I found that you can use the site ircatwork.com also.

7. Select autoconnect to this network on start up

If you want all those pretty smleys then go for pidgin or opera.
If you want something that can be connected from anywhere in the world then install openssh-server, screen and irssi/*****X/circe/etc.
