The trick is, is to put on a jabber server and lock it, so it doesnt 
interact with the wider jabberverse , then just get em to interact via 
that. If its a small office, theres no need however, but at the guild, 
where we are spread over one of the largest campuses in the country, its 
pretty essential. That said, much to my chargrin, the prefered messenger 
is MSN. bah. listen to the IT guy will yas!

Geez. mIrc ought be classed as malware, considering all the bloody viruses 
that thing attracts.
