If you need ICQ on windows and you need Free this is it. Did you install ICQ and it took over your OS and Browser? Did you uninstall ICQ and ICQ search plugin for FireFox only to reboot and have it reinstall itself? Do you hate ICQ? This is the program to fix all of your problems. Well, it won't remove the ICQ virus but the rest of your problems.
Features I like about Pidgin: ability to have multiple accounts in the same application, support for fun plug-ins, reliability, option to have a spell-checking.
Features I don't like about Pidgin: upload/download of files does not work well, and is usually slow, occasionally the website's link to the download does not work well.
Overall, it's acceptable since I don't send or receive that many files.
Multi protocol chat client with good support
Pidgin jest o wiele lepszym komunikatorem niż GG.
GOLD!
an amazing messenger !
you have all of accounts in just one application ;)
a lot of fantastic features can make your internet conversations a lot easier xD

Light. Easy. Too bad evolving so slowly with changes specific to protocols.
