Windows Messenger !
I have no problems with it, I use it all the time ! But I can tell anyone how to remove it though I find this solution too sad...
What I don't like with Trillian is that you have to keep it on top of other progs to see if you have new mails ! Hotmail Messenger does pop up a little window that gently tells you you have new mail or that a contact is online and many other things...

If everyone you plan on chatting to is looking for a new messenger program, and you're all on Windows - then MSN Messenger will do quite well. If you want to chat to people on different programs (Yahoo/AOL/ICQ), then get Trillian.
If you do get MSN (from msn.com ), then go to passport.com and create a passport for your email address (you'll need this to chat), or setup a hotmail account (which comes built in with an MSN passport).

I like Trillian... it does them all (AIM, ICQ, MSN, Yahoo, IRC)
i hope you are all using a firewall, and anti Virus.
From what i have heard, as well from a freind who decompiled the program, it is not very secure AT all,a "hacker" possible dream. Unless they have fixed all that in newer releases.
for one, think of all the ports it needs to run each app..?
i'll stick with ICQ and MSN, thas it for me.

yes very true
but overall, i have not heard very good "security" reviews for this app. (am, trying to locate some now)
basically if you have this installed, although u have your firewall and such in, because of the ports this program requires to run, you are leaving your computer very open to attacks.

true dat, to my knowledge yes,
but it was basically in the overall programming of the app, it was poorly done.
i am still trying to find the oroginal info i had on the app, and why it was so unsecurem as opposed to just open ports.
