We would like to find a canned program that allows us to host a social
network on our website. I am not interested in a list of all the
social networks that exist but specifically a program that I can
install on my own server that would allow people to meet, match
interests, share information, plan meeting and so on.

I've gathered links to sites which offer software that will allow you
to set up your own social networking site. The first four that I have
listed below are, in my view, likely to be among the best and most
versatile options for you. I've included several additional links to
software that is more specifically oriented toward dating and
matchmaking.

run your own Friendster, Orkut and Tribe.net site! This script allows
users to connect directly to people in their networks and community in
a fun and safe way. This site offers a large variety of features,
ranging from search tools to profile page. In addition, you will also
be able to add more features such as blog, with the advantage of
expanding features."

I fogot to mention my server is Microsoft Windows Server 2003 Standard
Edition. We need the package to be in .NET or C and can't use PHP.
That is what all these packages seem to be using.
