iIChat Logger

iIChat Logger is a chatting tool developed to log conversations on MSN, AIM, Yahoo or ICQ, offering some extra tools to help users enhance the whole process.

Once launched, the program places an icon in the Windows System Tray that gives you the power to start monitoring one of these apps with just a click, while also comprising a shortcut to the log viewer to easily see previous conversations.

While it can keep an eye on the aforementioned instant messengers and record conversations, iIChat Logger can also lock the log files with a password, thus blocking unauthorized access.

IIChat Logger can be used as a parental tool and prevent children from launching instant messengers, with dedicated tools to restrict access to the selected apps. What’s more, the program can even block incoming messages for specific contacts, as it automatically closes the conversation window once a new message is received.

iIChat Logger is not at all difficult to use, with a clean layout that makes sure beginners can quickly figure out how to use it. Still, a help section is also available, just in case you need some documentation on a built-in feature.

Last but not least, it’s important to note that iIChat Logger works flawlessly on all Windows versions and although it’s supposed to run most of the time, it doesn’t affect the overall performance of the system.

Overall, if you’re looking for a parental tool to restrict access to instant messengers or simply read previous conversations, iIChat Logger is worth a look. It’s freeware, stable and reliable.
