No. A wide variety of IRC clients are available for other platforms, including Windows and Mac OS X. Most IRC servers are designed to be run on Linux and Unix-like systems, but a few, such as WeIRCd, have been ported to Windows as well.
There is not one correct answer on this procedure. Installing and configuring an IRC client is dependent on your operating system, the IRC client you choose, the version of the IRC client you choose, and how you prefer it to be configured. Numerous IRC clients are more popular than others on the Internet. For Windows, mIRC is a popular choice. For Linux, XChat (also known as X-Chat) is a popular choice. For Mac OS, XChat Aqua (also known as X-Chat Aqua) is a popular choice. A complete list of IRC clients can be found at http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_IRC_clients.

I think it was the Linux kernel. There are many used with Linux now.
Text probably looks a little different from what you are used to in Linux because Linux only uses freely licensed fonts. This means no Arial, no Times New Roman, no Tacoma, etc...
If your computer is properly configured from a security standpoint, you may be able to download the installation file but not run it. The installation of the IRC client will require administrator privileges because it changes computer settings and opens ports for communications. Because IRC connections are usually unencrypted and typically span long time periods, they are an attractive target for hackers. Because of this, careful security policy is necessary to ensure that an IRC network is not susceptible to an attack such as an IRC takeover war. IRC can also be used for file sharing, so secure networks will block most or all IRC traffic to prevent exfiltration of sensitive information - which is another reason they should prevent non-administrators from installing IRC clients on their machines. Even if you already have an IRC client on your computer, if you connect it to a network that enforces blocking of IRC traffic you still will not be able to communicate via IRC over that network.
IRC rules depend on the particular network and channel that the irc is on, in general, anything illegal is against the rules.
No, websites have IRC channels by choice.
