We have a LAN in college hostel built on hubs and switches without any proper orgranisation. There is no server. I need program that behaves like live messenger or google talk but in LAN. Need to send text with beeping when its not the active window and do LAN calls which initiates a ringtone.
Haven't tried any, but found LANTouch Instant Messeger, its shareware

You can use Windows netmeeting. Its in your c:\Program Files folder.
or Type conf at the run prompt to start it.
Even u don't need that !!
Try inbuilt "winchat" !!!
Go to run & type winchat
Thanks for you suggestions. I will check it out when I get back to hostel.
