I just did a google search for "irc server daemon" and this is the first link that popped up:

I suggest you run the same search and see what you can find.
Someone please remove this account. Thanks...

Also, keep in mind your ISP may not allow hosting IRC servers, no matter how small. Better check out your ISPs plicy.
