What we are telling you is that we do not have a habit of telling people how to breach the security protocols of computers not owned by us and not owned by the user who started the thread. Full stop, end of story. If you want to be a h4x0r or use your employer's time to gasbag or download things then you are in the wrong place. Your employer will have blocked IRC ports two very good reasons:
1. To help stop the ingress of damaging data (virii, trojans, backdoors or whatever you want to call them) - Having had one of my servers nailed by Nimbda (not an IRC borne virus but a virus all the same) I know the importance of vigilance when it comes to computer security.
2. Your boss will surprisingly want you to do some work.
This web board is jam-packed with honest, ethical people who for the most part, despite the odd disagreement, give good advice. You should try following some of it.
