IRC doesn't cost anything, by the way.  You can also find a client that's
best for you via this nice article on enwp that I often refer people to: <
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Comparison_of_IRC_clients>.  If there's an
emergency and you need to get on IRC, you could always use the web
interfaces like <http://chat.wikizine.org/> and <http://java.freenode.net/>.
