IRC - PuppyLinux = chatroom download disabling

Hello again,

I have also been trying to disable the chatroom download under IRC.

IRC.FreeNode.net - in general use by Puppy Linux users - has about
5000 channels. Downloading them can result in a timeout from the
server.  Therefore, I have been trying to disable the download.

Long term - the download should be put off until the user requests
a list of the channels ( rare ), or moved to the background.

With the help of bluesmoon I have made a first stab at turning off
the download.  I have attached the diff file.

Hope this helps,

George
