Default Chat software

I'm sure as many others do I use msn ect.

But is there is a software that I could use that will run msn, aim ect in onr program?

Rather than having to run like 2-3 chat programs, is there that can run that will run screen names from all the chat services? My computer is slow, so having more programs running makes it slow.

So any program suggestions?

I've used Trillian and Gaim (now called Pidgin I think), both free and work well but don't work with some features of MSN e.g. video.

I have one on AOL because we used that where I worked 3 jobs ago.

I have one on Yahoo because that was my 1st chat proggy

I have two on MSN, one based on a Hotmail account, and one set up since Live started allowing non Microsoft relate email accounts to be used as ID's

I also use IRC.

I use GAIM because it will talk to all of these AND conversations can be encrypted.

Of course as I am going for the one-upmanship awards, sometime next week I should have my own Jabber server running...

Trillian is what I'd recommend, I only use MSN now but that use to be very good when I had ICQ, and Yahoo too.

Trillian is good. Adium if you're on a Mac.
