Instant Messenger Type?

Ok here's the question - what type of instant messenger program do you use?
AIM, Yahoo IM, MSN Messenger, ICQ, none at all?

Let's hear your choices!

I have ICQ, but have never used it. I got it to keep in touch with a friend in Sweden who uses it, then his computer crashed and he he hasn't gotten his new one yet. Other than that, I don't really have any use for one. -TD

Actually I did it this way to find out how many different types of Instant Messengers there were. I knew of these but maybe there's more.

If anyones upgraded their AOL IM lately I would recomend running a good spyware program on your system.
Also check your drive for a program called "word text" that got put on mine when my son upgraded his AOL IM.

Kopete. Its a client compatible with all the major IM networks, AOhell, M$N, ICQ, Yahoo, and others. I don't know if its available for windows or Mac, but it is available for Linux and *nix systems.

MSN. I used Yahoo years ago but now I use MSN Explorer with the messenger integrated into it. Been using it for the last 4 years or so.
