Most users on Windows choose to use the popular shareware client, mIRC, which is available for a 30 day trial, and costs $20.00 after the trial period.
The popular Unix IRC client XChat and a number clients forked from it are also available for Windows.
ChatZilla is a viable choice for Windows users, and a particularly compelling one for users who regularly switch between different platforms.
Trillian, Miranda, Pidgin, and other "all in one" instant messaging programs include IRC as one of their supported protocols.
Bersirc is another choice for Windows users.
