A "Trillian" ways to chat

[Laurie]

I haven't installed this YET myself, but a friend of mine did and apparently it "kicks ass." ;)

Trillian is a multinetwork chat client that currently supports mIRC, AIM, ICQ, MSN, and Yahoo Messenger. It supports docking, multiline edit boxes, buddy alerts, multiple connections to the same medium, a powerful skinning language, easy importing of your existing contacts, skinnable emoticons, logging, global away/invisible features, and a unified contact list. It has a direct connection for AIM, support for user profiles, complete type formatting, buddy icons, proxy support, emotisounds, encrypted instant messaging to ICQ and AIM, AIM group chats, and shell extensions for file transfers.

Version 0.74 includes bug fixes and other minor enhancements.


And it's free to download (http://download.com.com/3000-2150-10047473.html?part=trillian&subj=dlpagtag=button)

I got it a while back. I don't use it because I only use Yahoo Messenger but it is really cool if you use all the other messengers. Very handy little program. :)

I have been using Trillian for at least 6 months now, and it RAWKS!

Download it and use it, especially if you use mulitple chat programs.
