Thanks, WT. I'll be waiting patiently :)Usually IRC servers provide different ports for various purposes (for example, UTF-encoded traffic instead of 1250-encoded) etc.

FYI, I can connect on a non-SSL port on the same server with no problem. Not sure it matters, but offer it as a data point.
All freenode servers listen on ports 6665, 6666, 6667, 6697 (SSL only), 7000 (SSL only), 7070 (SSL only), 8000, 8001 and 8002.

you definitely can connect without ssl, but you need to read an instruction at the server
As I mentioned previously, 32 bit users of Miranda NG are apparently able to connect on that port using SSL.
t's in the first post, but I'll gladly repeat it here: thot.us. The owner has assured me that the SSL port is 12358.
