VZOchat  Review

Easy-to-use, small software application for free video communication via the Internet on any broadband or even dial-up connection. It works with most PCs and web cameras and does not require special skills to use. Its advanced network support allows connections when both users are behind a firewall and even works through HTTPS and SOCKS proxies. NAT hole punching (NHP) technique is implemented in program, allowing direct connections in many network configurations. The software provides good video quality with full-screen video support and a noise-reduction feature for noisy USB cameras. It contains a proprietary video codec that has been specially designed for online video communication at lower connection bandwidths from 30 to 100 kbit/s. This application features an address book with user presence status and detailed user information with a photo. The software supports downloadable skins and language packs.
