I use:

MSN Messenger 6.2
AOL Instant Messenger

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

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

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

MSN Messenger. We did something similar here ;

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..

hi phil121 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

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

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.

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

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.
