Put the info about the IRC channel in somewhere. I've answered that question tons of times. If not Mirc, then how about a free client for Windows and a free client for Linux. On Windows there is Icechat, which is pretty good. And then there is also Pirch, Dirc and others that I haven't tried. If you can still get it, X-Chat 2.04 was precompiled and free, but not now. I don't know if someone out there is compiling the current perversion and providing it for download. On Linux, there is BitchX (yuck), X-Chat, irssi, Kopete, Gaim, etc.
Might want to just point users to one linked page that describes how IRC works and lists all the available clients. I think http://www.irchelp.org/irchelp/altircfaq.html does that. And http://www.ircreviews.org/clients/ lists clients for all OSes.

This is minor but KcLUG seems out of place maybe KCLUG or kclug.
I remember you saying something about having a irc link to the #kclug channel, also if you add that you might add a link to download mirc too =).
Added a link to the block to point to a news article (which can contain user submitted replies and such), included your links.
Thanks! Steven (Tallen)

Looks like when you follow the link to X-Chat 2.4.0, there's the option to download 2.0.10c, which is still available for free.
