Instant Messaging Help

[IntranetHacker]

Hi there

I am wondering whether somebody would be able to help me out; here is my situation i am currently working as a (part-time) techie at my school, and i am looking for a instant messaging program which can be monitored/controlled by the teacher of that class

it's hard to share class related information via each other and a program which can be mointored or even watch the text ( programs like italc, "It lets you view and control other computers in your network in several ways" http://italc.sourceforge.net/home.php)

if anyone has some background on this please answer back, (preferably the program is free!)

How does it need to be monitored, for example, if you don't care about real time monitoring can't you just simply log the conversations to a place on the network that students can't reach.

as long as it can be monitored, like as proof for something, real time or logs it does not matter
