Anything other than Aidum X, Gaim, Miranda IM, and Trillian?

Adium X is OS X only, Gaim looks ugly, Miranda IM takes too much effort to setup, Trillian Basic..well, starting to not like it.

Anyone here with a Miranda IM setup with unicode working who wants to share with me? :p

I think there is a client called IM2 or something, only a few hundred KB and just has one executable file. But doesn't support unicode :(

gaim is awesome it gives new Linux users the ability to use any Windows only service on Linux , plus it provides Linux users with a barrage of services i.e Jabra, napster, MSN, yahoo .... and many others.

GAIM FTW

I don't like AIM's flash ads (with sound). It was mad annoying to hear those promos suddenly play while you were listening to music. :|

It doesn't support "GoogleTalk." Trillian Pro supports Jabber, the open source standard that GoogleTalk uses.

Gaim supports Jabber, and can therefore interact with Googletalk. I would recommend Trillian or Gaim.
