Local Share 0.9 e

Local Share 0.9e is a Chat client, like ICQ or mIrc but needs no
server to run. Just enter IP addresses in your network or IP range
used in your sub-domain. Local Share can send your messages by
multicasting or one IP at a time. Places an icon to system tray and
when a message is received in minimized mode, the tray icon flashes
until you view your messages. You can see last 100 messages sent, and
set LocalShare to view for more if you want. Because Local Share uses
UDP packets to communicate, it makes almost no traffic on your network.
Working ports can be configured, so that different groups can be formed
on the same network, all using multicasting method. Use Local Share
to communicate with friends without using any dedicated server machine
and server software. Just give all friends a copy of yours and you 
are in it. You can also see whois online with an integrated ping tool.

No installation is necessery. Just unzip and run.

Freeware. Uploaded by the author and freely distributed.

Just send me an e-mail about Local Share, for the full source code.
