OK, pretend I dunno jack about computers. I install mIRC on my computer at work. How do I connect to the IRC chat room?

Please show your work when answering this question, as partial credit will be given.

Do you know if you have a firewall at work?

If not, then what Lola Ebola said should work... however, I like Pirch a bit better personally, so you may want to try that out too, unless you're partial to mirc.

If work is paranoid/security conscious, you MAY need to find out what port they've got open for you to get out of, and that will include more tweaking, but hopefully you're on a LAN and no firewall restricting outbound traffic.

Assuming that you don't know jack about computers, also be wary of ppl sending you files, or making you go to webpages that spawn a bajillion windows and make your box go up in flames (and making whatever you were working on, but forgot to save, go into the bit bucket)...

:eek:
