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 for using it - you have to be inside single subnet, without software/hardware routers between users who want to participate.

The main features of LANcet Chat:
* no need for pre-configuration;
* no need for allocated server, it works in a conference style where participants all have equal rights;
* chat can start automatically with Windows and stay in system tray (near the clock) waiting for messages whole day without disturbing you;
* private messages can be sent;
* popup windows and sounds will inform you when new message incoming or when new user appearing in your contact list;
* Antiboss system allows you to hide chat from desktop by pressing <Esc> key. As quick as hide you can restore chat window using your own secret key combination;
* simple contact list control allows you to ignore all messages from some boring or non-interesting interlocutors.
