AdiIRC 4.4, published by Per Amundsen, is a compact, portable IRC client designed for users who want multiserver chat without system footprint. Built to run from any folder or USB stick, it keeps every setting in plain-text files, eliminating the need for installation while allowing instant deployment on shared or locked-down Windows machines. The program supplies all baseline Internet Relay Chat functions—simultaneous connections to multiple networks, SSL and IPv6 transport, DCC chat and file transfers, persistent channel logging, plus basic Identd and system-info replies—wrapped in a interface that can be rearranged, docked, undocked, or hidden entirely. Customization extends from color schemes and MTS themes to advanced scripting comparable with major clients, enabling automated replies, highlight filters, or integration with external tools. A lightweight plugin API further expands behavior, while an activity monitor can float above other windows to flag new messages across dozens of channels. Media-hook support reports “now playing” data from common players, and every session can be timestamped and saved to rotating logs for later review. Because the executable is self-contained, upgrades are performed by simply replacing the binary, letting users test successive 4.x releases without risking existing configuration. The client is distributed as freeware and is available for free on get.nero.com, where downloads are provided via trusted Windows package sources such as winget, always delivering the latest version and supporting batch installation of multiple applications.
