Rude "help" rooms

Pros
The list of products they allegedly have sounds too good to be true- whiteboard, voice, etc.
Cons
None of the services actually work.
Summary
It's ICQ's evil twin maybe 15 years ago. Black and white. Typing. No security. No service. Run.
invades your privacy....

Pros
The Gcn software is windows based
Cons
The chat system has no defined policies of "wrong" doing. The administrators (some who are people under 18) of the GCN network make up the rules as they go. GCN has an ID system that remains on your computer even if you uninstall the main gcn software. Use Norton CleanSweep to log the install, and uninstall the gcn software to remove the aforementioned (WARNING: using Norton as above, may mess up your computer depending on where GCN stores the ID information).
Summary
It is a very easy to use program and the people on it are so nice to talk to.
