Hi all, Its been a long while since I dabbled with IRC (prolly in the xp days), Now I have a Running copy of Windows 7 64bit, I am wanting to get back into it. From what I have read tho, there seems to be a lot off issues with 64bit SSL`s. Also, I know this is a tad pickey, but mIRC if realy UGLY. I have never tried xchat but from what I have seen it has a much nicer GUI. Now, My main requirements for mIRC/Xchat is Blowfish (or fish as it is known). Does anybody use either client on a 64bit version of win7 with Fish working 100%. I have read many conflicting stories regarding this, and NeoWin always seems to be the best site for reliable information. Any help would be greatly recieved, the sooner the better thb. Im realy thinking of xchat atm, but the "fish" issues are a big put off for me (if they are true). I am always open to other software suggestions (I will be using Linux in the future, but not for a good few months), but again, Blowfish is a MUST. THANK YOU VERY MUCH FOR READING THIS, AND I LOOK FORWARD TO THE REPLIES.
