Since we've had a few discussions on #neowin about what IRC clients we use and why we use them, I'll ask the same question here.

I didn't come up with many other popular IRC clients other than those listed, so sorry if I forgot to mention your favorite one :)

My favorite one is mIRC with Noname script. Especially the newest version 4.01 with the lag meter, status bar and the treeview make it a must for mIRC users. :)

Edit: For the record, Noname script, hIRC, Polaris, Fractal, ircN, .. They're all mIRC scripts.

X-Chat Aqua ftw.

it allows me to write and use scripts in Ruby, Perl, Python and TCL, i cant do that with mIRC (cant run mIRC on a mac either, but that's another story.)

oh, and it supports Unicode (and so does mIRC 6.17), plus add that together with the font subsystem in OS X and i can render most languages by default (tried Russian, Chinese and Japanese, all appeared fine for me)

I love xchat and I'm using the build from the offical source :) (yes the linux version)

btw add irrssi as a choice as that is a huge client on linux

mIRC customized with MTS engine, and Undernet User Script. I hate scripts that use dll's for anything. So it's no-dll script ( Eg mdx.dll noname.dll)

used to be pnp 4.22 but it's kinda outdated

mIRC, because that's the first one I ever used, and I've stuck with it ever since.

+1

Though, I think I'ma give XChat a try :)
