    Freeware LAN based messenger utility

    Hey guys

    Basically as the title says, I'm after a free LAN based messenger utility; something that allows me to chat over the LAN, send URLs etc.

    Not really interested in sending files, just a chat program.



    For some reason, I get serious delays chatting to others on the LAN when using MSN.

    more powerful tool softros lan messenger has many features, but free for 30 days only.
