That may be but MSN broke GAIM 1.x and I had to upgrade to pre-2.0.0 to get back the MSN IM access that I needed. Pidgin 2.0.0 is stable and works well with at least Yahoo, MSN, Jabber and IRC. Note that that version of GAIM and Official MIT support doesn't even mention Vista so perhaps you shouldn't use Vista? :) Danny _______________________________________________ kfwdev mailing list [email protected] http://mailman.mit.edu/mailman/listinfo/kfwdev
