Multi-messanger for mac?
I havn't posted here before, so hi.
Anyway, I was wondering if there is an application somewhere out there that is an instant messanger that can communicate with MSN, ICQ, AIM, Yahoo etc. Trillian is windows only, but is basicly what I'm looking for on a mac.
If nothing of this kind exists, is there at least something that can be used in place of MSN messanger, but can still communicate with other people using MSN? MSN is quite annoying to use.
Any help appreciated.
I could bore you with a philosophical tirade about freedom and tyranny, or try and explain to you what new horizons are suddenly open to me, but I doubt you would understand and if you did it might frighten you. That amuses me.

Check Proteus first. If it is not what you need, move over to Fire.
In Proteus, go to Preferences / Accounts to get started. I prefer to adjust some of the colors, font size, away messages, message layout from Modern to Classic, some sound alerts.
Proteus has 2 versions: version 2.2 for Jaguar (10.2) users and 2.02 for pre-Jaguar.

Unfortunately no such thing for Classic; Odigo seems to have dropped support for Macs.
