Trillian rocks. It combines many programs into one simple and easy to use program, that has no ads or mal-ware. The support forum is very helpful, and I would highly recommend Trillian to anybody that instant messages.

good program for integrating all your chat needs into one neat package.
But to a security freak like me there is some to be desired is all I will say. Your PW's for instance can easily be extracted by someone who has access to your machine and the know how to do it. More easily so than extracting a remembered password from yahoo chat or aim etc etc. Still though is that ever going to happen to us home folks ? probably not. Then its a great little program and I use it at home as well. ( just not at the work place). |

RE: trillian
I have to agree with you that for security reasons, our company does not allow employees to use public IM systems such as AIM, yahoo, etc. We are only allowed to use enterprise class IM systems as the Akeni Enterprise IM that we have installed. Trillian is a useful software to communicate with friends but not a good choice for office use.

I use Gaim, not to be confused with aol IM. It is similar to trillian but has been around a while previously it was made for linux but now it is available for windows. I find it to be just as good, almost. It provides support for all IM clients as trillian but is more simple for people who have an average amount of friends on instant messenger. I always support the open-source software as Gaim is, there is no buying anything for this program ^^

i have been using trillian pro for about 2 years. no major problems.i like it BUT:
-for some reason it doesnt automatically update my contacts new screen names -it is not fully compatible with MSN. voice clips and those fancy smileys dont work. -security is terrible. all your IM logs can be accessed manually through just browsing the trillian directory |

rave, that is interesting and good to know in case i switch over...but most likely im going to stick with gaim. i don't use logs but they are convenient. it is too bad that either of these programs don't fully support all im protocols. but i refuse to have three different programs for one application

Minor detail on the latest version of Trillian, but when used in communicating with MSN, the user icons will only work if they are the available stock ones. It won't allow the use of your own graphic. I'm not sure if this is true when chatting with other clients. Just in case you wondered...
Kind of a tiny thing, so I'm guessing it won't be patched until the next version of Trillian is released.

Been using Trillian for a couple days now, and I must admit it is a handy little application but holds little practicallity for me as I only communicate though MSN, but I made the switch because it opens my emails in firefox rather than IE. That is the biggest plus so far.

They just released an update last week that cured the icon issue.

I have used Trillian for up to a year now and I'll admit, I dont plan on going back to AIM anytime soon. Trillian just combines everything extremely well. The only program I used to have was initiating connections with people with AIM to transfer files, but that's seem to be fixed now. I do admit I wasn't happy years ago when it first came out - I uninstalled and went back to AIM - but I ended up giving it another shot when a friend of mine recommended it to me.
I use the free version and I'm very pleased. Since it's free, everyone ought to download it at least once and give it a try.

too bad there's no nudge feature on trillian, but I use it pretty much for AIM not msn since I enjoy MSN 8, and i dont like the merge list. lots of plugins tho so i'm pretty happy with pro. as good as gaim, better in someways, but gaim used less cpu and memory so... but diff program. better then that new aim tho, way too complicated.
