I've been using Pidgin lately, much nicer, not all flashy or any of that crap, and it works, unlike MSN.

I don't think i need it enough to justify paying for it. I just wouldn't use it all that much. Thanks for the info though.

Skype does video/voice chat for free. Use that with yr girlyfriend and aim with your mate .. or better get him to use skype and you're sorted in one client.
