You can setup an IRC proxy on an outside server you can get it, and
then connect to that via ssh-tunnel (or, ssh out and then irc from
there in a screen session).

Also, if you set it up to connect directly to one of the irc.perl.org
servers does that work? You can find the direct server list at
http://www.irc.perl.org/servers.mhtml - try one of those rather than
irc.perl.org and see if that helps.
