Very amusing ;)

But is there an alternative?  I need to allow windows and MS desktop 
users to send and revieve short messages, like they are used to on MSN, 
but in a controlled environment, inside the network as I don't let them 
use MSN (or any other IM) because I am a BOFH.

Any alternatives you can come up with I will consider.

WIll.
