FREEWARE
IRC is short for Internet Relay Chat, although IRC & newsgroups have things in common
such as the ability to talk to others & download files. Everything on IRC is live & not static
like on newsgroups.

IRC Pros: Because everything on IRC is live, you download files directly from the group or
person hosting the channel. Most channels are hosted buy well known & reputable groups.
There is no provider like on newsgroups, so there are no bad uploads, unless the original
file is bad. If you post a question it can be answered immediately.

IRC Cons: IRC is a bit more difficult to jump into & get started. Because there are many
people trying to download the same file you may be put on a download list, first come first
serve. If you're one of those who can't fallow simple rules, The moderator of the channel will
kick you out or ban you entirely.

Below you'll find some IRC FAQ's & helpful links, to help get you started on IRC.
