I haven't used irc for years but isn't it all plaintext unencrypted? And isnt your ip tied to it?
I've never looked into any of that for irc so maybe I'm way off base.
I do remember making my own fvwm config where an irssi irc terminal would slide out of the top of my screen with a hotkey and roll back up again. I was pretty proud of that.
