Pidgin - I like it a whole lot more now that I figured out why my away messages weren't working (had to disable the idle messaging which was overriding the a/m).

buddies -> show buddy details

took me forever to find that. In gaim the option actually had a name that made sense, but with the gui revamp with pidgin, nothing is where it used to be....

I use Trillian Basic, it covers all my IM accounts and it was free. It's nice just having one program open and being able to have access to all my buddies.

ive found trillian pro to be the most robust app out there for multi-client chat.

Trillian for me. Waiting for Astra to hit Beta, but I'll give Pidgin a try.
