I guess my main concern is that I open a security hole when learning how to use an IRC client. As most ppl seem to prefer BitchX, I'll probably go with that. I guess what I'll do is ask if one of my buddies can show me the ropes so I don't do anything stupid... I read BitchX's IRC faq, and noticed one thing I probably would have overlooked... IRCing as root... :P There are probably some other things that I should know before I attempt to login using BitchX for the first time...
