IRC can be overwhelming, but with Linkinus youll never miss an important message. Linkinus uses static highlights, dynamic highlights and PCRE regexps to determine which messages are important to you. You can also decide to bookmark (star) messages manually.

Not only does Linkinus support Blowfish encryption, key exchange and SSL certificates, it also provides feedback to keep you informed of any changes in security: a remote certificate has become invalid? A server is not trusted anymore? Someone is sending unencrypted messages in a Blowfish channel? Youll know it. When your session secured, Linkinus still provides instant visual feedback.
