Pidgin should work, I need to use msn sometimes for school projects and 
that works with pidgin.
I might give it ago actually.

As Jason has said there are a lot for the cli.
Personally I prefer the cli for a lot of things and I think irc is better 
in a cli.
I use irssi,
http://irssi.org/
I believe.
And it is one of the most powerful irc clients, it can log, auto join, 
auto log etc.
And is very accessible with brltty (and since I am having to use speakup 
since my display isn't working with my new box that also works)
