Koby Posted March 13, 2012 Report Share Posted March 13, 2012 If you would have read the tutorials or even the big message on the home page, we recommend XChat-WDK (what I use), mIRC, or Chatzilla.Also it's called a client, not a host. =P Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Subman® Posted March 13, 2012 Report Share Posted March 13, 2012 XChat-WDK is a good client to use but....I had an issue where it would not run correctly. I kept getting the error msg "python27.dll is missing from your computer"Research revealed a likely cause of capability issue. it was setup for 32bit use and I was 64. Had to D/L http://www.python.org/ftp/python/2.7.2/python-2.7.2.amd64.msi and the problem resolved itself. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thus installing Python fixed the issue. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Diabetus boy Posted March 13, 2012 Author Report Share Posted March 13, 2012 Thanks, i never do look very wellso will x-chat work with a 64 bit system Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Koby Posted March 13, 2012 Report Share Posted March 13, 2012 Thanks, i never do look very wellso will x-chat work with a 64 bit systemAs you can see on their site: http://www.xchat-wdk.org/home/downloadsThey have both a 32 bit and a 64 bit.However you should note, 64 bit systems can play 32 bit programs just fine anyways.My laptop is 64 bit, but I installed the 32 bit on it. =P Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

† An IP BreAKDoWN Posted March 14, 2012 Report Share Posted March 14, 2012 If you want free get xchat-wdk. Plain and simple. Chatzilla works too, but xchat-wdk has less problems. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
swallow6 Posted March 31, 2012 Report Share Posted March 31, 2012 I use xchat. If you want, you can use chatzilla on xulrunner in case you don't want to have firefox running all the time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
