maybe not ircII but other solutions exist, for example on www.ircnet.org you can open a cgi based irc client which runs over http. Some proxy servers allow irc connections thru them (but i've only seen that happen in mIRC). There are also irc daemons that listen on other ports than 6667 e.g. 8080 which might not be blocked all depends on the configuration of the proxy/firewall .... just try until you find something that works. hth -- http://www.de-brauwer.be -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
