This is a support site for the chat program 'Microsoft Comic Chat'. This IRC chat client is a fun and unique way of chatting through comic characters in a comic strip environment rather than just plain text chat.

CAPTCHA FREE WEBSPACE!

Microsoft Comic Chat still works, EVEN in Windows 11!
In February of 2001, Microsoft closed the default servers for the program!
Therefore one must connect to their own favorite IRC chat server!

Our favorite server is the Crypt server.

The Crypt server connection address is: www.crypthome.com/#Crypt
