For anyone that's interested, I figure I'll just post the info here for how to config trillian to do what you need it to in order to get into the IRC channel with little effort.
Double-click on Trillian to launch it.
Right-click on the icon, and selet Preferences.
Under Basic Options, if the third box says Do Not Load Trillian at Startup, click it so that it shows Load Trillian at startup.
Next, click on IRC, and on the right, select the first box and leave default, then click the second box.
Click OK, then right-click on Trillian and close it.
From the Pulldown menu (listing all the diff. services you can connect to) and choose IRC.
Click Add on the left side of the window, and a new window pops up.
In Description, type in whatever you want (i.e., azgeocaching), and Tab into the next window.
Type irc.azgeocaching.com, then Tab 2x to the Port and enter 6666.
Tab again and in Group type Geocaching.
Click OK and look at the headings for Personal Information, Identd and Perform Buffer.
If the servername listed shows irc.azgeocaching.com, enter your nickname into that field.
Due to possible disconnects, you are required to enter a second nickname, so go ahead and make it a variant of your first.
For username, put whatever you want, and the same for e-mail address. Next, click on Perform Buffer and type the following sequence:
/j #azgeocaching
Click OK.
Right-click on the Trillian icon in your System Tray, and close the program.
Double-click on Trillian again and make sure it all works.
I realize this may be a lot of info, but it's VERY detailed steps to prevent missing anything.

I haven't lost my mind. It's backed up on disk somewhere.
