Any Trillian users here?
I've been on MSN Messenger for a while now but am aware that a fair few people I know are on Yahoo's and AIM's IM services. Trillian would seem to be the ideal solution (purporting to support those three plus ICQ and IRC to boot) but I thought I'd check if anyone's had any odd experiences with using it. I was thinking especially of how it might interact with MSN Messenger which has proved extraordinarily difficult to get rid of in the past!

Hmm... I've used Trillian for MSN for a while and never had any problems. However, I never had the MSN program to start with.

I use Trillian and it seems fine, including for MSN. I've never used MSN Messenger but it is installed on our PC, because it's automatic with XP.

So no weird interactions between them like both trying to log you into MSN?
Posted: 13:18 May 15 2003 Cheers. Will check that out too.

trillian is like the best thing ever. i'm not using it now as i've changed to linux, but it is highly recomended, never had any trouble. if you like things not to take up much space on the desktop look for the seti skin which is the one i allways used.

I *hate* Trilian! 
I don't know if it's something to do with XP, or what, but having to enter *all* my details everytime I wanna log in is not my idea of an easy system to use!

I'm on XP, and it remembers all my login details fine...I just click 'reconnect' and there I am logged into MSN, Y! and AIM...
I can't make it connect on IRC though, but I might just be being dim.
