I really dispise java chat programs, they always lack a host of user features that everyone wants eventually. Get mirc, pirch, etc,, look at http://www.valinor.sorcery.net/clients/ for a list of irc clients for all OSs. As for the net to put an irc channel on, i recommend Sorcerynet, since i am an ircop there. It's smallish, more stable than any other net i've been on, significantly less lag, and an available friendly oper base. Kat
