Stateless IM

Hi list

Does anyone know of a program that can directly connect a Linux box to a 
windoze box so that we can chat?

Privacy is one thing, the other is with normal instant messengers, all clients 
are dependant on the server.  If the server is overloaded or unavailable, it 
doesn't work.

By stateless I actually meant that it doesn't rely on a constant connection, 
like if for instance it uses the UDP protocol to send messages and the TCP to 
send acks or something?

Anyone know of such a beast?

With kind regards

Andy
