    It didn't work right out of the box and I have Dot NET 2.0 installed but not any IDEs at this time.

    Could it have been written in an older version and I need to convert it? I've had this happen before but had to use the IDE to load the solution and let it upgrade.

    It was just a test anyway as I was searching for information about the one installed in XP. It seems a bit obscure and I have never connected to anyone with it. I need to know someones computer name.

    I've never liked downloading applications that I know nothing about. The browser based chat apps are nice in this respect. Many are based on Java applets. The only thing that you have to make sure you have is a working version of  a Java Runtime Environment(jre). I have the latest build jre1.6.0_02.

     WinChat (Patrick Lam) looks like .NET 1.1.  You will no doubt get cross-thread errors between GUI and threads processing client/server text.  Recommend you look up delegates to get rid of this type of error.  .NET 1.1 did not flag this error, but .NET 2.0 correctly flags the error.   I am in the process of doing this now.  chuck[quote user="Developer Fusion Bot"]
