I've read some guys 'IRC FAQ' and then I noticed it wasn't for the game itself. So, Why won't the IRC work?

I've connected, from the options menu, and I'm using Win98SE. Is my OS a problem?

Not that this matters, since he still won't be able to connect with 98/me.

no thats because it doesnt work for you, there is always someone on irc, the channel is always full of idlers and most of the regulars spend a lot of time there.

Hey guys...I've just started a new game with the latest patch and bought this HUD upgrade irc client

Please tell me.. how does this thing work?
Just clicking on the irc icon and writing the channel? help plz.  

And other thing..is this a normal irc (you chat with real people) or a simulated irc? (you chat with the computer pretending to be real people)

by a N00b* ;)   thx

I would suggest you take the following advice if you wish to talk on irc.uplinkcorp.net channel #uplink;

Get a real irc client. Uplinks in game irc client was never properly finished, as anyone with the DevCD could tell you. WolfLord is working on a mod to fix that, but till then I would suggest you get either  XChat, Trillian, or even mIRC.

With the IRC software you chat with REAL people. Not the fake agents in the game

In the next patch, I think they should show a warning sign or a text in the description about that it doesn't work on these OSs
