I use Gaim because it's better programed than Trillian and you can customize the smilies to make them Trillian Smilies or make them native smilies. :wink1: I can use all of my Im services in one App.

edit: Although I do use Trillian sometimes (because of the features) when it's not in "crash mode".

MSN is my main IM.  I use AIM and Yahoo as well, but I prefer MSN over them all.

I use AIM the most but I've been getting on MSN more for some reason.

I also use YIM but not very often.

I got tired of Trillian's absurd instability, I dislike Gaim's interface, and Miranda is impossible to enjoy, so I went back to the basics.  I now use Pork exclusively.  It's nice because I can SSH to the server via anything with an internet connection and have access to the AIM windows I already had open.  That, and it takes no resources on the client side except for the miniscule amount PuTTY needs.

Aim, Msn, Icq, Yim are a breeding ground for spyware. Gaim dont do squat,  so Trillian > all other IM programs.
There is no such thing as peace and there never will be. Peace is a delusion believed by the weak. Gandhi said : "An eye of an eye would leave the whole world blind". So be it because only a blind world can experience the peace that it deserves. But there in lay the sick irony. Who will be able to see this peace? The human species is at war. The enemy walks among us nearly invisible. Only those with true discernment can see them. But only one with discernment and vision can show them to others

Hmmm... let's see what Trillian does:

-Crashes almost every time you try to start it up
-Sponotaiously crashes
-Takes about a half a minute to start up
-Has smilies that arent native to the messenger your using
-Lags
-Constantly freezes

But hey, Trillians ok...
