What is IRC?
Someone has mailed me this address to look at.
irc.infatech.com #bandwidth
What is it and how can I view it?

You'll need mIRC from <a href="http://www.mirc.co.uk" target="_blank">http://www.mirc.co.uk</a>
Install it and set it to connect to irc.fatech.com or whatever the server was. Pick a username and once you're connected type "/join #bandwidth" to connect to the channel. If you're at work, your firewall manager has probably blocked irc connections. See <a href="http://www.mirc.co.uk/ircintro.html" target="_blank">http://www.mirc.co.uk/ircintro.html</a> for a detailed summary of irc.
