Thank you for writing up all this information on IRC clients for Axims -- I found it really helpful to see all the information compared. I tried -- and even bought -- wmirc after trying all of them, but it had problems with a server I use where it wouldn't show any text other people typed in the channel (logs worked fine, though).

I know there's a few new IRC clients out there -- zsirc seems like an awesome freeware one but had the same problem on the same server for me -- but I recently found one called mircy (why is it so popular to base names off mIRC?) that worked and had logging, which was the dealbreaker feature for me. It doesn't seem as polished as wmirc and blurs some of the text in VGA unless you use the VGA hack, but it has a channel nicklist, which is kinda nice.

Anyway, I thought it might be useful for anyone else who searches the forums for such things to know about, or who might have similar problems.
