I like XChat, and I cannot lie.
I would like to add that webchat is an EXCELLENT product:
for those requiring it's firewall circumvention abilities and also not wishing to install a local client / On the go.
many instances where it would be great.
For me though a slightly more complete solution was a better fit.
Thanks MobileRead!
I also added a screenie that shows how to setup an alternate default channel and auto-login password location (when you have your password)
Added some screenies of the various channels and Xchat.
