As you know, I was once a poor lad with XP. And I used MSN Messenger by Microsoft as my default IM application. Now, on my Mac I use ichat by Apple, not Adium or anything else. ichat supports dot Mac, AIM, and Mobile Me. I have a MSN account and I tried to use MSN for Mac and it wasn't my forte. I found an application called amsn. amsn allows you to do everything you could do on MSN for Windows plus more! You can download amsn here for Mac- prdownloads.sourceforge.net Windows- prdownloads.sourceforge.net Linux- www.amsn-project.net
