To DCC Chat with someone, click on the Chat button in the toolbar, and a DCC Chat dialog will pop up. However it does need to use the IRC Server to initiate the chat session. Instead it connects directly to the other IRC Client. This method is more secure and usually faster because it does not rely on the IRC Server to relay your messages. There is another way to chat privately called DCC Chat. You can find out if a person is on IRC by using the /whois nickname command. Press the enter key, and a query window will open up and you can start chatting privately, assuming of course that the person is on IRC. If you are not on a channel, you can type the command /query nickname, where nickname is the person you want to chat with. Alternatively, you can click your right mouse button on a nickname in the nickname listbox and a popup menu will appear with various options, one of which will be to open a private query window to the selected nickname. You can then start chatting privately to them through the query window. If you are on a channel, and you see someone you would like to chat with, you can double-click on their nickname in the nickname listbox and a private query window will open up. As well as being able to chat on public channels, mIRC also allows you to chat privately with other people.
