Hi all! I'm constantly using an instant messenger program either at home or at work. I currently use trillian but it always has a problem logging in (and staying logged in to) my MSN account. I need to find a new FREE program that I can use. I have vista on my computer if that makes any difference to what I can use.
I need this program to be able to log in to AIM, MSN, and YAHOO. If anyone has any recommendations I would appreciate your help. Thanks in advance. --------------------  Call me a traitor! See if I care. ;) |

I have a Mac and use Adium which allows me to log into basically any IM program... So look that up if you can, if not there's a site called Meebo that I think you'd like. Meebo.com, just check it out.

I use digsby. Its free and lets you connect to msn, yahoo, aim, google talk, etc. AND it can also check your myspace and facebook and let you know when theres a new comment/friend request etc, and it lets you put any email account there too.

There was so much JDM trapped inside that box that they couldn't contain it, so they had to put a JDM hole in the box to let the JDM out.

I used pidgin. I used to use trillian. Both are pretty good for what you want to get done. However I recommend pidgin. Its pretty good at doing all IMs plus it has a lot of plug-ins for it. I don't know how well those will work for windows though.

Well the consensus was to get pidgin so I downloaded it. Is there someway to make it one of my default programs so it will start at the startup of windows? I looked through all the preferences but couldn't find what I was looking for.
Thanks for your help guys. You always pull through.

Put a short cut into the Startup which can be found in the Start menu.
