I've gotten so used to xchat on linux, mIRC just about kills me...
was helping somebody get set up and decided I should share this with anybody else out there who doesn't really like mIRC....
xchat 2 for windows, free version!
http://www.silverex.org/download/
no good monospace fonts in windows though so:
ftp://ftp.gnome.org/...f-bitstream-vera-1.10.zip
copy into your fonts dir, have to restart xchat to get them to work if you started it already
Bitstream Vera Sans Mono
Size 9
then launch, set up irc etc etc....
Preferences, get to the colours bit!
Background: #000000 (black!!)
Foreground: #52F463
colours 14/30: #059AFF
colours 15/31: #5ED4D8
I can use IRC on windows now :)
