KVIrc started as an alternative IRC client for KDE under GNU/Linux by Szymon Stefanek. The project has undergone major re-writes in its history and is now available on Microsoft Windows and Mac OS X. It is licensed under the GPL. It supports simultaneous connections to multiple servers, SSL connections to servers, UTF-8, IPv6, as well as the SDCC protocol. It also has many scripting abilities, and is very easy to configure. Its user interface is somewhat similar to mIRC.
