and does The MSN Messenger Use this way ?

bye .
I don't use MSN Messenger so I am not sure how it's setup. With most messengers, it doesn't need any port forwarding because everything is done remotely and the client applications just grab the information from the server. When file transfers are done, some IM applications need port forwarding.

Unfortunately I don't have any samples because I have never done any socket programming. I am preparing for getting my CCNA so I know quite a lot about networking, just not about programming with networking.
