There are thousands ways to chat between 2 computers. Even windows has
the standard netmeeting. There are many web sites where you can chat
from the browser (fancy java or plain html).
By the way what company policy forbids netmeeting but allows vnc ?!

P.S. About bloat: there is a need for a chat client in vnc, I wonder
what's next, encryption ? :-))
