Fire is also an excellent alternative
Authored by: soob on Dec 05, '01 02:38:31AM

Can't say much about Adium (since I haven't used it), but I will give it a try.

I did want to put a plug in for Fire (available via VersionTracker)... it's an excellent alternative to AIM, also.

Try Proteus also
Authored by: andriven on Dec 05, '01 04:35:26PM

I saw the tip about Adium today and couldn't help but write in about Proteus, another multi-protocol IM app for Mac OS X.

I've used just about every client out there (AOL, MSN, Adium, Fire) and haven't been really happy with any of them. I downloaded Proteus today and am very, very happ with it. It works reliably and has a lot features.....the kind that strike you as "why didn't I think of that?"

I really wanted to like Fire & Adium but just couldn't bring myself to feel comfortable with either (either interface or bugs).
