1. You can always create one.
2. Multi-domain name website.
http://www.ceruleanstudios.com
http://www.trillian.cc

Both work.

This is probably better suited for discussion in "General Software"

No - you just need an AOL Instant Messanger Screen Name (or MSN, Y!, ICQ) and you can log on through those using Trillian. The software itself, the Pro version is 25 USD, the free version is...free.

Trillian is designed as a multiclient application. It allows you to run AIM, ICQ, MSN, and Yahoo along with IRC through one interface. To run any of the instant messengers, you must have the appropriate accounts already.

Sorry about that - thanks for moving us Statica.

Lamilla - give the free version a try...it's free. If you like it, you might consider an upgrade to the pro version.

BTW, you don't have to have those programs to open accounts you can use with Trillian later. That would defeat the purpose of the multimessenger app. Trillian itself allows you to open accounts in those services.

I'm a total newb with IM programs. Thought I'd give Trillian a try to chat with a friend that has Windows Messenger. With Trillian, do I have to make an MSN account to chat with him? If I want to chat with someone on AOL, do I have to also make an AIM account? Thx.

Yes, and yes. Trillian does it for you, you don't have to download the other messengers or even go to their websites.
