Introduction:
mIRC is a chatting program that the Dark Brotherhood uses to communicate with all of its members. Everyone from the very leaders of the Dark Council to the everyday members like you and me use mIRC. mIRC is very much like MSN, AIM, or Yahoo, except you can chat with many different people all at once.
Clan Tarentum encourages new members to use mIRC for a wide variety of reasons:
- It's a great way to get to know your clanmates and leaders and make friends.
- It's one of the best ways to get the latest news and information about Clan Tarentum and the Brotherhood.
- It's an excellent way to find opportunities for getting promotions, awards, and getting recognized by your peers.
- It's the best way to organize multiplayer games of Jedi Outcast, Jedi Academy, Battlefront, X-Wing Alliance, etc with other members of your house and clan.
When I first learned about the Brotherhood, mIRC was the key to my success very early on as a member of my clan. I made many friendships, some of which still exist today, many years later. If you begin to learn how to use mIRC and hang out in our chatting areas on a regular basis, you will be well on your way toward sharing the same success as a new member of Clan Tarentum!
This manual is designed to show you how to get mIRC and how to start using it as soon as possible.

There are several download sites that you can choose from. Choose any of the links that say, for example: "mIRC 6.16 in Illinois" They are all the same file. You may want to choose the location nearest you for a faster download speed.
Once you click on a link, if you're using Internet explorer on Windows XP, you may get a window that looks like this:
Click "Save" and then choose a location where you want to save your file. I generally like to save things to my Desktop:
Now, click save again. Once the file is finished downloading, go to the next page.
