**Well dump m$ and use gaim... Im using it now to contact msn, load the
**plugin and away you go.
okay, for the enligtemnet of us all to the magic world of IM clients ,
where does one find plugins for gaim? ( I have it up and running fine,
w/ AOL , but I also have need to talk to folks on MSn ( bah!) and
occassionally those on yahoo IM as well, one reason I installed the
gaim client was it was said that it could do all those w/ just the one
client. Sort of like jabber was suposed to be a year or so ago....
THo I must say Gaim gets high marks for a clean interface... not a lot
of junk floating around the main windows..
and it's helpful, esp in reguards to getting started.... even tho I
forgot my origional screen name w/ aim <sigh> the older I get the
shorter the FIFO time seems to be ... as if my brain shrunk instead of
grew the more I stuffed into it...
TIA
