Chat Protocol Packet Decoding

We require modules to be written to decode different chat protocols (currently MSN/Yahoo/AOL/ICQ) so that the chat participants and messages can be logged. These need to be developed by March 17th so that they can be tested and deployed by the end of March.

You will be provided with a test version of the network filter and our current MSN decoder module.

The network filter intercepts the TCP/IP packets and passes the packet data to the chat decoder module. The chat decoder module analyzes the packet data and creates a message object that is then used to log the data. All this exists and works - you will only be required to work on the chat protocol decoder module. The chat protocol decoder should be able to identify whenever someone joins or leaves the conversation and all the chat messages typed by any participant in the in the conversation. Any other events are not required at the moment.

The resulting module code must be written to be portable between Windows and Linux, be thread safe and fast.

There may be a future requirement to enhance the existing modules to log more events (i.e. file transfers) and to write modules to decode additional chat protocols.
