Use this original IRC server for the Windows operating systems.
From the developer: ""Join Me! is an IRC server written from scratch for the Windows operating systems. You may use it with any IRC client including mIRC. It's very easy to use since it features a friendly GUI.
""This update features minor enhancements and bug fixes.""
I just got off the phone with Join.me CS. After paying $150 for a year membership. I called to see if they could cancel my subscription (which you cannot do online?) . It also took them 3 days to email me back - WTF?I also asked for a partial pro rated refund for unused time. I explained that during my free trial everything worked well but in the last 5 months the bandwidth was horrible - giving me dropped calls. Furthermore the entire experience of using the product for my clients was not working. They always had to download do updates and so on. The UX?UI is horrible. It was so bad that my client will simply not use it. The killer is that they declined giving me a refund I feel that is to ally illegal They should prorate this? If our considering this i would look elsewhere I found uber conference now I love it and so do our clients.
Worked Perfect!

Pros
Quick, simple, gets the job done, can be used in a professional environment.
Cons
None at all.
Summary
We used this during our meeting today and it got the job done. It was perfect. I don't know why people are saying virus but we used the web version and our host used the desktop version for the microphone features. Everything seems great.
Subscriptions are close to fraud!!!

Pros
Easy to handle but once you buy a subscriptions the terms and conditions get you into a trap.
Cons
Be careful when using join.me. Their terms and conditions do not leave you out once you purchased something, unless you explicitly state this to them. Close to fraud.
Summary
Not recommended!
Great tool to use on a fly

Pros
This is a great tool to use on the fly. I've used other web-based programs and I have ran into pop-up advertising and install additional software just to make those programs work. But Join Me is very simple and easy to use right from my desktop. I have did several online meetings and I love it.
Cons
NONE AT ALL. PRODUCT WORKS BY DESIGN!!!
Summary
GREAT TOOL TO USE FOR ON THE FLY FOR FREE!!! DOES IT GETS ANY BETTER?
Easy to use - simply said, a must have.

Pros
I have tried a few other similar programs, and none weere as simple to understand and use.
Cons
I guess if you want to be super critical, I assume that you will find something you do not like, you almost always can. For me, right now, with limited used, I have found none.
Summary
So simple, you can install it on your and mom's computer, and reduce those "my computer is acting up again" phone call. All mom has to say is JOIN ME again :-))
The software does what it says it does, It creats a irc server on windows that is easy to use and setup, nice interface, and so forth. They even say in there readme it isn't for bigger networks because it doesn't support server linking and flood control, but its missing allot of other things (see cons). It runs strait out of the box, no instilation either. It has ops and some commands, and seems perfect for somewhat smaller networks. It doesn't lag, and its simple to set up. Its greats for what it says its great for. It also supports BOTs, using DLLs. Its wonderful for people that need something simple.
Cons
No nickserv, chanserv, or any other "serv" for that matter. And no options to add it. You have to restart the server for the MOTD file to be updated, but that ain't to bad unless you got allot of people in your server. It isn't really expandible, but it is easy to use.
