Agree, one thing I like IRC about is the TCP oriented chatting(communication).<br>
You get yes or no answer. not like email(UDP broadcasting), you don't know <br>
the recepients actually read the email of your request/questions.<br>
<br>

<br>
I was able to use Xchat(for windows) to pass internal firewall.<br>
but beaware it will show your company's firewall domain address.<br>
Another way is to use command line irc client from one's home network.<br>
