Hi Andrea,

I did a project a while ago for my third year project. It was a secure p2p
chat program.
Its not that pretty but its got a fair bit of encryption in it.
It uses SPEKE to establish a 256 bit key for use in AES.

Its built using MFC and the great MIRACL library (Dr Mike Scott @ DCU)

its free as long as your uses agree with that of the MIRACL library..
