AOL IM alternatives
Can anyone recommend a good AIM alternative?
I want something VERY simple. I've tried the Miranda client which would be perfect, except you can't view away messages. Blah. I've also looked at GAIM, but didn't like it for some reason. Features I'd like: - be able to sign in w/ multiple IM accounts - yahoo messenger compatible would be nice - file transfers that work

File transfers are a problem behind a firewall, though. scrub

Re: AOL IM alternatives
I use a skin called "minimal theme pack" for Trill. It's about as clean as you can get without losing functionality...
