Unfortunatelly, there is Netmeeting behind this firewall.
I prefer gnugk also because you do not need to provide special firewall rules for
every particular host in the network. I belive for bigger networks it is 
more reasonable solution.

Ok, I'll try.

BTW: I am still wondering: is it really impossible to find a solution
to encapsulate all the communication in one or more connections, but initiated only
from one side, thus in the way that is transparent to NAT and does not require 
any support on router?

How do they do that e.g. in Yahoo Messenger that it works via NATs without any problems?
