Crashes a lot, and pieces of windows get "left behind" over the interface, like the chat text and then slowly scrolls out of view. Very bad.

This is 37mb for two reasons: a) it is a GTK app and includes the full GTK runtimes in the package, and B) it contains full localization for dozens of languages.

MegaIRC is an Internet Relay Chat client that can work in one-windowed mode, putting all private, channel, and system messages in same window. Supports proxy, SSL, and various server encodings.
The program can also work in a debug mode where all server messages will be shown as-is, according to IRC protocol.
Note: based on user comments and due to a listing by multiple services as malicious, it has been replaced with the Softpedia download.

It doesn't support UTF-8, despite it's "multilingual" inferface (which apparently was created with machine translations).

The website wants you to complete a survey or download games before you can download the application. Very bad style... |

Doesn't even support MOTD |
Dana is a skinnable, single-server IRC client. Very light and "barebones," Dana is great for users that just want to chat on IRC, but will leave more advanced users searching for a more capable client.

Windows 7 defender springs in to action as soon as you download this, saying its a dangerous program which should be deleted. This is both the zip and exe versions.

It's safe, but without Unicode support, a chat software almost useless. |
