:hap2: either msn or yahoo, both are good :cool2:

Chat online, in real time, with friends, family, and colleagues. It's faster than e-mail, more discreet than a phone call, and best of all – it's free! MSN Messenger is more than just text, it’s a great way to collaborate with co-workers or touch base with family and friends. You can even send an instant message to a contact’s mobile phone. Customization features help you personalize your chats and make your connections even more meaningful.
 
Or we can use trillian, stopped using the official clients of yahoo and msn long time back. They are nothin but bloatware.
 
MSN isn't bloated at all (although the UI does feel so), Yahoo is.
GAIM for win32 sucks, Trillian has the same bloated UI feel as msn and it's not even freeware I think.

It's super lite, looks awesome and uses nothing out of it's own folder.
 
last time i compared resource hogging, trillian didn't even use half of what msn 7.0 did. miranda is the lightest though.
 
Mods can you plz add 7.5.0322 to the title, thanks.
:hap2: You can also try auto updating 7.5

Build 322 of MSN Messenger 7.5 is now released in full and as a QFE patch following numerous other QFE patches for beta testing this update.

The QFE released is dubbed QFE3, being the 3rd official QFE release, although it's really the 7th patch published.

This release is intended to try and fix sign in issues, John W. from MSN has listed the following things worked on:
A lot of people were experiencing sign in issues with v7.5.311 (QFE2), we took some changes to fix that or to give better error messages to figure out what was going wrong. And there was another fix to get our error reporting correct. As a byproduct, there have been reports that sign in is faster. If you or someone you know was having sign in issues please give the 7.5.0322 build a try.
In Korea, if you were using an IME (Input Method Editor), you would type shortcut for your favorite emoticon and get an extra character. Now emoticons are key to any IM program and it didn't make sense to not fix this (and we found a simple code fix). If you've got contacts in Korea, or know Korean yourself, give it a try!
If you had a Dynamic Background from Blue Mountain, bought it and installed it, then the Text Ads which you should have been getting while you had a Dynamic Background on weren't showing up.
There is a DLL which is central to our Audio / Video features, we had to take a new version of that to fix a bug where Messenger would crash if you unplug a USB device after running the Audio Video Tuning Wizard on that device.

This update is considered important because of the sign in fixes, if you have been getting error 80048820 since updating to MSN Messenger 7.5, give this one a try and see if it works!
