Free chatroom software?

[Mr.Domains]

I have a site I need to add a chatroom to, and I wondered if any of you have had any experience with chatroom scripts / software?

I mean, I know I can google it and get dozens of results, but are there any good ones that you have tried?

I would rather find one that I can host myself, rather than using one of these free hosted site tools services like Bravenet.com etc.

i use flash chat on a few sites, very nice and easy to use, its not free but is only 5$, the site is: http://www.tufat.com/script2.htm you can also use it as stand alone or there is a option to Integrate it into:

PostNuke
Invision Power Board (IPB)
PHP-Nuke
Mambo
Xoops
phpBB
vBulletin
phpFusion
Wow BB
Simple Machines
XMB
GeekLog
LunaByte
MD Pro
UBB.Threads
WotLab Burning Board

I would recomend http://x7chat.com. Version 2 is coming out soon and it is much better than the first one.

Thanks for the tip. Flash Chat looks a good option for $5. I will look into this, does anyone have an example of it integrated with phpBB?
