I'm sure this isn't high on most people's priority list, but I'm so excited I had to share. I've been using Fire as my chat utility ever since I started using X. It has a tendancy to crash from time to time, and does so consistantly when receiving a message from someone using Web-based ICQ.
So I tried out the new 2.0 release of Proteus, and I must say I'm absolutely thrilled. Simply put, this is the best ... chat program ...ever. If you were like me, and thought you were stuck using Fire due to the lack of a Mac version of Trillian or the many other PC multi-chat programs, try this one immediately.
