If you have never heard of Pidgin, then here it is. It started off from Linux, but available for windows (xp, vista, 7).

Basically you can log onto all your chat accounts (msn, aol, yahoo) at once and have only one chat program running instead of 2-3.

Get it here:

I love Pidgin. Especially after they included Facebook chat.

I am thinking of putting Pidgin back in. I don't know if Instantbird will ever get out of the beta stage. Thunderbird 3.0 has an add on for it for Firefox. Empathy comes with Ubuntu now as standard instead of Pidgin.

Empathy is just as good. (for linux users)
