I love trillian!! i have the Pro version. It gives you more options. the only thing i don't like is that you have to type out your own html in your profile. other than that, i love it..especially the add ons

here's the main website.

Trillian is the greatest program I have ever used.

I paid for the pro version in october of 02. It was all I used before that, its all I use now.

My friend has been using it for a long time and he seems to like it. Too fancy for me at the moment though. Maybe I'll try it out later

Couple things:

Their IRC client is terrible.

Their AIM crashed one out of five times you try to check someones profile.

It's MSN and Yahoo connectivity are terrible (Have they enabled webcams and voice chat in the newer versions yet? If not, another further reason why Trillian sucks).

ICQ is about the only service its solid with.

Its handy, thats about the only thing I can say positive about it. I use Trillian Pro 1.0 (cracked).

It is NOT worth $25 a year for the mere convenience of accessing multiple FREE services at once. If you got in early and paid $5 for a lifetime subscription, then good for you, otherwise, its a waste of money.

You really should have included a "Its terrible" option, otherwise this poll is incapable of revealing the truth

1) it's a basic IRC client... check out ircii to see what I mean.

2) AIM never crashes checking profiles for me

3) MSN and Yahoo both work fine for me, no camera support. But then again I don't talk to cam-whores.

4) ICQ works just as well as the others, meaning they're all solid.

5) No it may not be worth the 25 /yr, but I donated before they changed to the subscription plan. The msn, yahoo and AIM clients ALL suck and use advertisements or track you.

All and all Trillian is great, and it's not a resource hog like AIM and ICQ.

100% me too. I use it because half the people I know are on AIM, the other half on MSN. I keep my yahoo up just for kicks, and use IRC once a month or so to enter a chat room. Plus I paid for it once, and haven't been back to the site since. Didn't even know they charge yearly for it now.

I love it. Ive been using it for a while. I have Trillian Pro which I view as superior to the freeware
