Pidgin is a free multi-chat client. It used to be called GAIM. It is similar in intent to Trillian.
So, the quick review. My main reason for investigating it was that Trillian does not offer encrypted messaging outside of AOL, and that messaging is subject to relatively simple attacks.
So, on to Pidgin. After 30 minutes of screwing around with it, neither AOL nor Yahoo were connecting. Only MSN worked.
I'm very very happy to get rid of it.
