hello

can you tell me please the lightest instant messenger that supports MSN

thanks

sri:
I know you are asking for s/w, but isn't using sites like www.meebo.com not an option for you?

kalos:
mmm, thanks, but I wouldn't like to use a website for IM

due to a problem with my router, i haven't used IM for a while. but i was very happy with Miranda IM, do give it a try. also check out this post about Miranda by brotherS.

i use pidgin - memory usage 2600k so not especially lightweight (can be made lighter through options i think, less protocols, for example). CPU usage unnoticeable

i used  miranda for a long time, its a fine product but too much hassle tweaking it all the time.

I do use meebo too and find it very handy :D
