BUILDING THE ChanFltr SAMPLE


OVERVIEW OF THE ChanFltr SAMPLE
==============================
This is a simple Visual Basic Application which provides system operators
the capability to monitor newly created chat rooms and the changes to the chat
rooms (such as changes to the room topic and room name). The system 
operator can choose to kill channels from the main user interface. 

After building the sample, you can logon to the chat server by entering
your chat server, nickname, user name and password. To use this sample
you will need to have:

* system operator account on a IRCX chat server
* IRCX chat server

Note that this sample will only work with IRCX servers. You can find more 
information on setting up an IRCX chat server from http://www.microsoft.com/exchange. 
The chat service available with Exchange 5.5 server is an IRCX chat server.
