Chat Application Without Server - UDP

The User Datagram Protocol (UDP) is one of the core members of the Internet Protocol Suite, the set of network protocols used for the Internet. With UDP, computer applications can send messages, in this case referred to as datagrams, to other hosts on an Internet Protocol (IP) network without requiring prior communications to set up special transmission channels or data paths.

This is a windows application which keep listening to all unallocated ports and keep sending to the network throuhg a specific port.

this is the login screen.
and the next window is thw chat window.
