Re: LebGeeks IRC Channel

I have not used mIRC in like 10 years. Anyway of bypassing the registration period limitation other than pirating?

Any free alternatives ?

Re: LebGeeks IRC Channel

@ Padre:
mIRC expires in 30 days from the first use, but I am sure we can find a way around that if you know what I mean! :D

There are also free IRC clients. I had no time yet to research that.

Re: LebGeeks IRC Channel

Xchat is a free one that I've used for windows. Try it, it's satisfying 90% of the time, got some issues with stability.

If you want something designed that probably won't work you get an Engineer.
If you want it to fully work you have a Technician looking over his shoulder.

I use it also on linux. Satisfying enough.

What are you talking about ? Mirc is a freeware...

It's been 5 years i haven't registered, and I still use MIRC.

Re: LebGeeks IRC Channel

Huh... Freenode no longer accepts connections from Mibbit.

They have their own webchat app now: http://webchat.freenode.net/
