For those of you who do not know, a multi-protociol instant messager is one that allows you to connect to many different IM services at once (such as AIM, MSN, ICQ, etc) While only downloading 1 program. here they are:
Home | Pidgin Pidgin is the very best. All of the Instant Messagers used today are in Pidgin, It is awesome.
Trillian - Reviews and free Trillian downloads at Download.com trillian is almost as good as pidgin, except that it doesn't have as many different protocols. It has AIM, ICQ, MSN, and Yahoo.
Adium - Download very good, for mac users only. AIM, MSN, Jabber, Yahoo, google talk, lotus, etc.
Ayttm - User manual Ayttm is horrible, but it is cross platform, so i think it may work on linux.
