anything better than trillian

worto03

Hi,

I've been using trillian for a few years now to talk to people on yahoo messenger & MSN is there anything better that will connect to both of these or shal I reinstall trillian.

trillian works but doesn't have many features.

Just checking after getting a new laptop.

Cheers,
worto.

The next version of Trillian looks good, but who knows how long you'll have to wait:

Oddly enough, you may find either Windows Live Messenger or Yahoo! Messenger to be a suitable replacement for Trillian; users of these systems can now talk to each other.

thanks, I had reinstalled trillian after miranda didn't look much good.

I'll try MSN again & see if I can connect to yahoo peeps on it. If I can I'll keep that as it looks like the best one for me.

thanks for the info,
worto.

I've never found anything better than Trillian, be it Windows or Linux based. Definitely the best around if you want a simple (I've never tried using the more complex parts) messenger app.

Gaim (free) isn't too bad, although definitely not as complete as Trillian.

Yeah trillian is the bolox, there are a few features its missing but for normal IM's its great.
