Can MSN Messenger can work in a LAN environment without
connecting to the Internet?
 
Greetings,

MSN Messenger requires an Internet connection (connection to the .NET Messenger network). If
you were to use Windows Messenger, you can use it in a LAN environment with a SIP-based
Communications Server installed (like Live Communications Server 2003) or an Exchange 2000 IM
server.

However, as an even lower cost solution for LAN-based IM, see LanTalk XP:
