Hi, everyone. I've a small favor to ask...

Can someone tell me how to get to IRC? My stupid computer has window95 but
only a 16-bit winsock ( ie. a Trumpet winsock ), so when I tried to download
mirc, it didn't work! What can I do? Do I really need to upgrade it to a
32-bit winsock? Or is there a way that I can get around to IRC despite all
these problems?

Thanks in advance.

Check any of these places...there will be the latest version of MIRC. If it
doesn't specify a version for you on the page, then the zip should (as mine
did) have two .exe files...one is MIRC32, the other is MIRC. THe MIRC.EXE is the
16 bit executable....this is one solution. Although I don't really get why
your WIN95 has only a 16bit winsock (I've got 32 on my Win95). But I'm not
really sure how to upgrade to a 32bit winsock...oh well....
