Sounds like the link you're clicking has been spelled incorrectly.

the link format is irc://server/channel
example: irc://irc.efnet.org/ntfs

Well, what IRC client are you using ?

If its mIRC, then on the newer versions the irc:// links are disabled by default and need to be re-enabled via :
File > Options > IRC > Catcher > Enable Support for Chat links.
