I found worms world party today in my cd stand, and thought I give it a try
When suddenly my antivir program says this.
"W32/IRCBot-based!Maximus" in wwp.exe!

It's not a virus. Worms World Party uses IRC for the chatting and connecting to games; what your antivirus has detected is its method for connecting to the IRC server. Unfortunately, some viruses use the same method for connecting to IRC servers you see, so your antivirus is mistaken here.
