Does anyone know of the software you can download so you can IM users of MSN, Yahoo, and AOL?

www.trillian.cc

although technically with that you still need all of the accounts.

if you want something that allows one account to talk to another - look into things that use the "Jabber" protocol

I haven't used that directly in a long time. I use trillian for everything.
but yeah, if TheProject writes me on it, then it crashes after 3 lines. But only sometimes.
I think it senses that he's overly gay.

Now in order to use Trillan, you have to be connected to MSN, Yahoo, etc. correct? Trillan doesn't connect for you?

I was logged onto Y! this morning, but was kicked off when HG Pennypacker's gayness hit.....I haven't been able to log back on. I'm not sure if it is Yahoo or here....

Mine's working fine.

I tried Trillian a while back, but it kept crapping out.

Thanks, I downloaded that and it allows me to connect. I think Yahoo has probs with our firewall here.

I downloaded this trillian thing. Set up my accounts in the connection manager and set a global connect......

.... but the connect keeps failing

I can log on individually to all my accounts, but can't connect through trillian..? ....... do I need to have MSN and Yahoo running too?

Trillian really is the way to go. However I do used yahoo when I want to webcam since trillian doesn't have that feature.
