ProSnooper

ProSnooper is a program for the computer game Worms: Armageddon. It allows anyone to connect to the "Wormnet" game servers to chat, join and host games.

In other words, it acts as a frontend for Worms: Armageddon online play allowing a user to quickly launch ProSnooper to chat and join games without launching the full-screen game menu.

ProSnooper even supports minimizing, thereby being able to minimize ProSnooper when doing something else or logging messages while you are away. ProSnooper includes a message log that records private messages and highlights, other users typing your name.

ProSnooper is only available with Worms: Armageddon. Unfortunately, the Worms World Party protocol is encrypted and thereby letting out ProSnooper.

Features

  • Join and host games
  • Chat on Wormnet
  • Change flag and rank
  • A "buddylist" that allows you to keep track of your friends and notifies you when they join Wormnet.
  • Notification when someone messages you or says your nickname (highlighting)
  • Minimizes to tray
  • Very customizable display

New version

ProSnooper can still be downloaded from this site, but a new, promising, user-contributed version is under development at SourceForge. You may wish to use that instead; the version here hasn't been updated since 2007.

Go to the ProSnooper 2.2.x site.
