Trillian Basic is great.
by derekgaus - 3/4/06 2:07 AM In reply to: I send offlines to... by Eskiegirl302I have contacts in Yahoo, MSN and ICQ. I read about Trillian on this forum and have recently down loaded it. It works really well and now, each time I load Trillian, it connects to all 3 IM sytems which means I only have 1 system to load and not 3.
no best,just be better

But MSN BigAnt AOL GoogleTalk is more popular in the world.
Most of my friends and families use MSN for a long time.And in company most people like to use <a href="http://www.bigantsoft.com/">BigAnt</a> or AOL, because they are pretty effective.

Do you like it to use?

I think MSN IM is great. I live in Chicago with family in Indiapolis. By IMing my sisters, I am able to stay in touch at no extra cost, not even long distance charges. We have web cams and mics so when we talk with the cams and mics on it's just like being there. With MSN we can even challenge each other to some very nice free games while chatting. Sometimes we invite other sisters to talk with us, so there might be 4 or 5 of us talking at one time in the same window. Sometimes I send them pictures, music or other files thru messenger. And now they've got this really cool features called ''WINKS'' that allows you to customize messenger with different pictures and effects. So I guess you can see why I love MSN so much.
I repeat what I heard!

Messaging is a very cheap and quick way to make friends and to stay in communication with great peoble in New York as well as in Shanghai or Johannisburg, Moskow and so on. Peoble of all age come together, it is a real free communication with no afraid and no shyness for all men.
In a village in Belgium I can learn by messaging to think like an New Yorker, without any move in space.
Every day! It is very usefull for students and for old peoble too for many reasons. Everybody can find his specific use in mesaging. It donīt depends of age or sexe or money or altitude or attitude or blood pressure or healthy or strongness or weight or height or color or space or time. Try it and you will see that I am right.

could try paltalk as it allows you to log into MSN Yahoo messenger + ICQ etc
it has to be Yahoo
by BobWood1 - 3/13/06 8:09 AM In reply to: 3/3/06 What's the best instant messenger? by Marc Bennett
I have used Yahoo for a long time now and I think it gives you the best service. I never had a problem with them
Just typing? No voice?
by greybear70 - 3/13/06 3:14 PM In reply to: 3/3/06 What's the best instant messenger? by Marc Bennett
Hi; Just want to add my 3 cents. Voice can be fun also. Just pick up a cheap microphone (under $20 bucks) and have at it. Just like the telephone. The one on the other end doesn't have to have a microphone...they can type back. oops! my time is up. CU all later. Ron B.
active x and the problems inherrent in instand messaging
by blobasso - 6/20/06 9:04 AM In reply to: 3/3/06 What's the best instant messenger? by Marc Bennett
I hope its not too late to add to this discussion.
I'd like to get a bit more info on this subject. I've run into difficulties each time I used live chat also known as instant messaging. Reason was Active X. Seems Active X is what allows live chats to occur and it allows all of the garbage (viruses, trojans, worms, spyware etc.) onto your computer. I've shut down instand messenger and active x because twice I had problems that lasted for weeks until I figured it all out. On one occasion I was fighting for control of the mouse with whatever piece of garbage got into my computer and it took a tech from India to get rid of the mess this created.
So, how are others using this feature without running into problems? What else should I know that I don't know now?
