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.

Why not just add ip connection tracking to your gateway (if your
gateway's running linux)?

running nmap against the proxy server produced these results.

Some servers offer cgi-irc clients, which you can use over a standard 
web/proxy.  But not many. If you google for CGI:IRC you will find 
various servers (along with the sourceforge project page, which has a 
short list).

However, for you to use a real irc client your proxy will require either 
 NAT/Masq setup to do it transparently or a socks type proxy server.
