Anyone know of a good webpage based chat software? Something that is very configurable, has user administration functions, and is reasonably priced. Looking for something that runs on port 80 without disrupting my regular webserver.

Hi!
I use the Asp Chat app on my own site but I�ve done a some mods and add-ons to get a better performance and to be more effective.

It uses an Access database to save the messages temporary.

You�ll find the "orginal" version here: http://www.planet-source-code.com/vb/scripts/ShowCode.asp?txtCodeId=7281&lngWId=4&txtForceRefresh=51520038412316407 - http://www.planet-source-code.com/vb/scripts/ShowCode.asp?txtCodeId=7281&lngWId=4&txtForceRefresh=51520038412316407

Not bad but would really need some rewriting to get all the functionality I was hoping for. When I get the time I'll probably just have to write one myself.

What functions do you miss?

The most important feature it doesn't have that I need is the ability to have user accounts that can be given moderator power. I'd also like to have password or group protected rooms as well as a set of unprotected rooms.
