I usually use Trillian....so I can see all of them at once. But sometimes I just have MSN running.

I've got google talk working with GAIM. Apparently it uses the Jabber network.
GAIM HAX!

You too stupid to get GAIM to work or what? I don't have any problems with it.
At least it's not a resource pig like Trillian.
I'd rather run one GAIM app than have my system tray loaded with IM app icons, like a 13 year old girl's laptop.
"OMG! The buttons in MSN look like CANDIES!" eek:

Trillian > All
I'm only on my chat programs when I actually want to talk to people, I don't leave it running in the background so any kind of resource issues aren't problems.
Plus, Trillian isn't gay.

I've heard that too. I've never had a problem with Trillian, but right now I have 2 gigs of RAM. Does that solve the problem or is there something else I should be watching for? Like I said, I've never had a problem with it....but then again I don't leave it running all the time either.

I used to love Trillian, but this weak work computer would grind to a halt when I used it.
GAIM is basically the same as Trillian without all the extraneous crap I never used anyway. biggrin:

Mine doesn't do that. If I close the list, it just minimizes to the system tray. Must be a setting in there somewhere.

At work i use trillian because it dosent install in the windows registry and i can tweak it so if someone sends me a message i get a little blinking dot in the active process' tab right by the windows clock.
So if you want to be stealth then use trillian
