Private Message Plus

Private Message Plus is an IRC client that allows users to connect to a large number of channels at the same time.

It boasts a simplistic interface and all its main functions are neatly displayed in the main window. After you run the program, it proves to be pretty easy to create a new profile or to select an IRC chat-server, thanks to the wizard approach.

Just like any other similar app, this program provides a list with built-in servers. You can select the preferred chat server from a wide array of servers, or manually enter a hostname. This tool also offers the possibility of creating a list with all your favorite channels.

Moreover, you may join a new channel by simply typing in its name in the dedicated box. The application allows users to send a message to all their friends at the same time. The message can be composed in a dedicated dialog.

It is possible to choose an output destination for your downloads, log files and multimedia documents. You can start a new chat session or add a new profile pretty easily.

This software utility lacks some advanced features, as it doesn’t provide support for customizing the application’s looks and chat appearance, and you cannot opt for an automatic connection by adding the server address and channel to the list.

All things considered, Private Message Plus proves to be pretty useful, especially if you are looking for a simple-to-use IRC chat for Windows. It surely appeals to beginners, thanks to its overall simplicity.
