Most of all IRC & IM for a good majority of common services use SSL to
encrypt traffic. I don't know what you use for a IRC client but Irssi
has a -ssl connect/server switch to connect to those servers that have
it configured already and if they don't then you should take it up with
their operators. As for IM your traffic is subject to the operating
server either find a service that is encrypted or route it through Tor
but ultimately like others have pointed out, services like MSN, some
jabber servers etc... have be served with a warrant or other means to
get your traffic anyway.


Anyway to sum it up shortly, SSL is your best bet but limited to
policies of where your connecting.
