Honestly, I've never installed a mod into the same Diablo folder that I use to play. I always make a second copy of my diablo files, and install the mod into those ones. This way, I can use the second, modded copy to play over LAN, and keep my original diablo files to play over B-net.

It allows for LAN play with people across continents, it's basically a private version of B-net. Small networks can be set up (16 users max), and multiple networks can be set up, so it would probably be an ideal thing to use if you were to make a clan. It has chat features, announcements, bullitens, it's really quite cool...
It's used mostly for mod play, since we cannot play over B-net with mods.
Though, to be clear, this is not a form of closed battle net. It's LAN play.

I can run you through it, if you want.
