“forwards your computer activity to 3 different servers” ?

Do you mind telling us what you are talking about? That sounds highly suspect ;]

And isn’t Gaim only for Linux boxes? You can’t install AIM on Linux unless you have a Windows emulator like Wine…So that’s pretty much stating the obvious; If I had Linux installed, I would pretty much be forced into using Gaim ;]

I have tried Trillian and Gaim both. Yes, they are nice but in ‘my opinion’ they are missing at least one very ‘important to me’ feature; permissions/file serving capacity.

Anyway, we are all looking forward to your information ;]
*Waits…*

PS- No, GAIM Is for Windows and Linux.
