Personally every version of trillian that I have tried I hated. I didn't like the design (even skinned), didn't like the weird choices of which functionality did/didn't work, etc. I mean it did the basics fine (connecting to various messenger systems and allowing you to message people on them all) but otherwise it seemed lacking and annoying. I just didn't feel comfortable enough to start using it over the primary clients.
I'm using Miranda for the last 2-3 years, and I'm pretty happy with it. Intensely customizable both in UI and functionality, though it may be VERY painful to setup sometimes, even to power users, due to plugin or file version conflicts, lack of specific support. Takes a look o Google and forum searches to fix up some issues. But man, once it's done... just enjoy it!
Used to use Trillian, but it started to get as 'heavy' as MSN Messenger, and wasn't very customizable. Since I no longer access my AIM, ICQ and YM accounts, I disable their dlls and run with only MSN protocol plugin. And it looks so pretty! The only thing I don't like about Miranda is the terrible way you view Message History... For this you better get a nice plugin.
iChat. Okay, yeah I'm a mac fan too, but iChat has been a wonderful app especially with the newer AV versions and the addition of iSight to all iMacs and Apple notebooks. It makes doing video confrencing very simple, especially when your on the road like I am a lot.
I still use Gaim for all my other IM networks, probably because I use those the least, and besides, Gaim really out-does the AIM and Y!IM clients. I have used Trillian in the past, but just didn't stick with it for very long for whatever reason. Oh, and for some strange and quite infuriating reason, ICQ forces itself to run on system-startup, even though I hardly use the network and only connect periodically, usually for specific reasons (and people).
I'm not using IM networks so much, but whnw I'm using I use Gaim, an d he perfectly suits, he just have all I want from him and disain is so good. I never want to change it.
I use Gaim as well. It works well with all the major IM protocols and is relatively lightweight, portable across operating systems, and extensible. Being open source with an active developer group, Gaim is also continually being updated.
Unfortunately, there has been a compatibility problem with MSN for the past two or so days. On the other hand, a workaround has already been created, and a fix is on its way. I used to use separate IM clients for each service (i.e., MSN Messenger, Yahoo! Messenger, etc.), but their ads annoyed me, and each program began to hog disproportionately more resources as they evolved. One good note is that Yahoo and Microsoft have worked toward interoperability between their networks. This would allow one less IM client for those who would prefer installing the name brand software.
I use Kopete because I didn't like Mercury since it's using Java and Java sucks when you have more than 5 conversations going at the same time or have a conference. Also, Kopete can handle all my AIM/Yahoo!/Jabber and MSN. However, I still prefer Skype.
I don't like GAIM either and especially how it's outlined. They save your contact list into the local computer. It's highly annoying whenever you delete contacts on another computer not running GAIM and come back to one that is .. It'll then ask you to resync the contact list. xboxrulz
I really don't use anything along the lines of AIM, Yahoo, Jabber etc. At one point I tried AIM, but it became burdensome since everyone suddenly decided they wanted to talk to me--a major waste of time. So then I uninstalled it. I like Skype so far though, it's a nice way for me and my parents to talk to my grandparents (overseas) and the sound quality is great.
I use Google Talk a lot, since most of the people I know are on there. But it's not fun when I don't want to talk to someone but I need to log into my inbox. Then I can't log in because I know they'll immediately start a conversation with me...which can be really annoying. >_<
I used Trillian as one of the multi-IM programs and have used it ever since. I have tried both GAIM and Miranda before and didn't like them. Usually I will keep those since they are very lightweight programs, which I like. I don't need anything fancy. But Trillian still caught my attention and I have been loyally using it for years.
It would be great if I could get Google Talk for Trillian also. I actually have found a plug-in for Google Talk on their site, but couldn't get it working. Could be an error on my end... Latest Entries

I've been using Mercury Messenger for a long time now and I just love it
 . I'm always running the last beta, and altough they sometimes are buggy, I still can't stop using it (I've even put a complete java environement on my USB stick so I can MM at school  ).I don't even care that it's written in Java, I never have more than 3 conversations open, so memory usage isn't a real problem (especialy not when I get my new laptop with 2Gb memory  ).I've also used Gaim, Kopete, Trilian and Miranda and Windows Messenger. The last one sucks because it can't do anything else but chatting, Miranda and Kopete are too basic and I can't get uses to them (don't know why). Gaim and Trilian are good alternatives too, but they just can't offer what Mercury Messenger offers. Whereas MM has almost everything (and sometimes more) as WLM8, Gaim and Trilian still are anything near WLM8.
Yahoo! Messenger - Always seems to be buggy with me. Closes down when I try to message someone, so I haven't used it in years.
AIM - Too simplistic for my means and doesn't have at least half of the features Windows Live does (last time I checked). Windows Live Messenger - I'm more partial to this one. Has multiple features, changeable colors, and other things. Since this messenger's been the one I've used most and has been most reliable to me, I'd vote WLM. QUOTE(patronus4000 @ Feb 26 2007, 02:05 PM)  I use Windows Live Messenger, because I rarely go on YIM anymore, but when I do, it's Yahoo! Messenger. I've tried several other Messengers, but: Serena, all these are pretty simple to configure and use. Most of them are just straight forward fields asking you for the username and password. If Trillian doesn't work and you are sure everything is correct (in terms of username and password), then check your firewall or something. Make sure you are installing it under an Administrator (or one that has the same rights) account to be sure.1. Trillian: Gawd. The most annoying messenger ever to deal with. It never worked, no matter how I tried to set it up. I tried it twice (different versions), and ended up uninstalling it twice. It's just a waste of time. 2. Miranda: Kind of confusing, but not too bad. At least it works. XD But I didn't really like the skinning, so I didn't use it, in the end. 3. GAIM: I was going to try it, since it had so many features and could log in to all my IM accounts, but I think I was too tired of all these "other" messengers that I never actually went to the trouble of downloading, installing, and configuring it. Oh. And since now I have a GMail account (GMail accounts are now free for all now), I'll probably try Google Talk soon. Serena Update on the Google Talk feature. The Google Talk plug-in I found last time didn't work. So I searched around and found an alternative method to use it. Just install the Jabber plug-in. Go into Trillian->Trillian (menu)->Connections->Manage My Connections. Then on the left panel, click on Plugins. Check Jabbber and it should install the plugin. Then click on Identities & Connections on the upper left panel. Go to Add a new connection and select Jabber. Then enter your username with the @gmail.com after it. Type in the password. Then click on the Change button. For server host, type in talk.google.com and use server port 5222. Click Save Settings and Connect. Works without any problems here
I use Yahoo messenger , Google talk and Skype. I like Yahoo messenger very much because it is available in your own language and it is better to use own im clients than going for other multi messengers . Now they have integrated windows live messenger with Yahoo it sounds good.
