There are different clients that you can use - some have a trial and some don't. Take a look at this list sometime, as it lists quite a few of them. Icechat is rather nice if I recall correctly.

I use leafchat.  I haven't had any problems with it.  I don't know how it ranks in comparison to other programs.

If you use the Opera Browser, it has a built in irc chat (all platforms) and you can tab between channels and websites.  Sort of nice.  This is not a "pro's tool", but is ok for the occasional user.

If you use Firefox, which any sane person does, you can use the extension ChatZilla

It costs 1000 USD and it will wipe your pc from existance.

Just kidding, it's 100% free & opensource.
Plus, it's easy to use.
