Which IM software do you use?

(If you use more than one, say which you prefer)

Re: Which IM software do you use?
 

I use:

MSN Messenger 6.2
AOL Instant Messenger

I prefer MSN Messenger cos its the one i use most frequently

Re: Which IM software do you use?
 

I have all four clients on my computer but I prefer AIM for some reason.

Re: Which IM software do you use?
 

I use trillian - amsn - gaim.... Depending what mood I'm in :)

Re: Which IM software do you use?
 

Trillian never worked for me, wouldn't connect to AIM. Nice concept though, having all the clients in one program.

Re: Which IM software do you use?
 

MSN Messenger. We did something similar here ;

Re: Which IM software do you use?
 

I have AIM, MSN 6.2, ICQ and yahoo messenger installed on my PC.

But I use gaim, so that i can log into all of them at once..

Re: Which IM software do you use?
 

Miranda
Does everything, and does it well.. without all the bloat of trillian.

hi phil121 :welcome: to the forum, enjoy your stay :)

I only use MSN 6.2 - and that very rarely, to be honest, I don't know how people cope with being in different conversations -I can just about manage 1 conversation with 2 or 3 other people :dozey:

Re: Which IM software do you use?
 

oops i forgot, i use MSN messenger 6.2, logged in comparatively 24/7

Re: Which IM software do you use?
 

I use MSN and trillian but looking for somethng to replace trillian.
I also use Skype where you can talk or instant message but used more for conference talks.

Re: Which IM software do you use?
 

I use Miranda like S1lv3r. It has plugins for everything (My personal favourite is the status change monitor. It monitors everyone's status changes, so you know if you missed anyone while they were online, what time they were last online, etc.) Also because it runs on plugins, you can take off whatever you don't like including protocols. Makes it real small and light. Also because of the competition of plugins, some of them, like the History++ are very good. Makes the standard ones on other IM software look positively prehistoric. Oh yeah, and being able to go into away mode once, and it automatically change it for ICQ, MSN and IRC (using mIRC) is rather nice :)

Re: Which IM software do you use?
 

I use Trillian, even tho registered i use the free version as it's less resource hungry and less bloated. Must look into Miranda again, been over a year since i last looked at it.

Re: Which IM software do you use?
 

Windows (not MSN) Messenger, nothing else.

Re: Which IM software do you use?
 

MSN 6.2 and Yahoo 6.

I think yahoo handles voice and cam far better than MSN

Re: Which IM software do you use?
 

Well I prefer Yahoo because it's far and away better than anything else out there, especially MSN. The problem is that very few of my contacts use Yahoo - no one has heard of it. I have to spread the message and encourage them to download it :) So at the moment I use both MSN and Yahoo - though my system does slow down when both are running :(

Re: Which IM software do you use?
 

Mostly I use MSN 6.2, but I also use Yahoo Messenger on occasion.

Re: Which IM software do you use?
 

Have used Yahoo and MSN for mates.

I used to work for AOL (for my sins), so had to have AIM logged on at all times when working so could communictae most of the time without email. I quite liked it.

Probably prefer messenger out of all.

Re: Which IM software do you use?
 

i use msn. cos, well, its all me and my friends use :)

Re: Which IM software do you use?
 

I use all 4 at some point but mainly MSN 6.2 and Yahoo.

Re: Which IM software do you use?
 

I have MSN and iChat (the AIM client bundled with Mac OSX). iChat does audio and video, which MSN for Mac doesn't (no surprises there :rolleyes: ). But I generally use MSN as the people I talk to on the 'net seem to prefer it.

Re: Which IM software do you use?
 

I use Kopete, which can basically use all of them IM services :)
