Re: Two clients on one computer!
Well, if you know how to program in Delphi, the concept should be:
  1. Initial contact... Exchange notices whether or not a client has alread attached to a certain UDP port.
  2. If so, then the server probes the next designated port. If it's unoccupied, bind the connection. If it's already taken by another instance of the client, then move on to the next designated port.
  3. When you make the exchange, the server should record which port it's been bound to. This way, the server can differentiate.

Good luck!

I personally think you should implement an IRC client.
