As far as I know, firefox has its own IRC client already, or is at least linked with an online IRC client, so, as long as everyone uses what can be really called The Browser, we wouldn't need Java crap.

i think it would be a lot easier, when people ask for help, to just send them a link then try to explain IRC for them. personally i only use IRC once every 6months or so and i always forget how to do it...

Well, I can't argue with you. IRC is a great way of communication, the question is: how many people would be available online on IRC at a time to help others with their problems, and how many of them would actually be willing to do so?
