Editor's review

Chat or IM (Instant Messenger) clients are essential tools that helps users to keep in touch with their family and friends and exchange conversation and data in real time. Today there is no dearth of IM clients and user has a lot of options to choose from. The best known IM client to date is Yahoo! Messenger who also happens to be one of the pioneers of modern Chat and today it garners to millions of users. There are two different types of IM clients: web based and desktop based client. The former can be operated without installing while the later needs to be installed in the users desktop. However, there is another type of chat client like LANcet Chat 2.3.300 which specifically caters to members over a Local Area Network (LAN) and is highly secure.

LANcet Chat 2.3.300 is a free software through which members can exchange messages over LAN in real time. With LANcet Chat you do not need to install a chat server as it can function independently. This chat client supports upto 20 users at the same time which is enough for a small Local Area Network. With this chat client you can send private messages and have unlimited conversation with your buddies. This program starts automatically with Windows and remains idle in the system tray unless and until manually activated by the user. Like other IM client LANcet Chat also displays a pop-up with sound when you receive a new incoming message. You can use the vast range of emoticons to express yourself to your friends over the network. Apart from this you can also use the Antiboss system to hide your chat sessions from your boss.

To, conclude LANcet Chat 2.3.300 is one of the best IM clients you can use securely over a Local Area Network. The only limitation of this chat client is that you have to inside a single subnet without software/hardware routers between users. Nonetheless, this is still a superb chat client and deserves a rating of 3 stars.

Publisher's description

LANcet Chat is free software for real-time message exchange over local network (LAN). With it you don't need to install chat server. All participants can connect any time and they will see each other automatically. Just run chat on every computer and start talking immediately.
Chat can freely maintain 10-20 users at the same time and even more. The only limitation - you have to be inside single subnet, without software/hardware routers between users who want to participate.
Allows sending private messages. You can hold as much independent conversations as you want at the same time.
LANcet Chat can start automatically with Windows and stay in system tray (near the clock) waiting for messages whole day without disturbing you.
Popup windows and sounds will inform you when new message incoming or when new user appearing in your contact list.
You can switch off some boring interlocutors by "ignoring" their contacts.
Use emoticons to express yourself more than just by words.
Simple "Antiboss" system: press Esc and your chat will hide into system tray or will erase all the latest messages you got. Extremely useful when your angry boss is walking behind you and watching what are you doing on the job.
