I got mine just before getting on. There are 3 places I recommend for
Internet software:

        http://www.tucows.com   The Ultimate Collection Of Winsock Software

or

        http://www.stroud.com   Strouds's Consummate Winsock Applications

or

        http://www.winsite.com

The first 2 are really easy-find the CHAT or IRC category and grab
something--I got PIRCH32--shareware, $10 to register, worked fine
instantly, unlike MS Chat, eh?

Cheers

P.S. PIRCH==>PolarGeek IRC Hack, from a company in Thief River Falls, MN (I
was born near there, at a very young age.), somewhere near Frostbite Falls,
MN. Growing up in MN puts a real chill on our humor!
