I think mike said it pretty well... as an aditional note, I have icq, yahoo, and msn messangers, but yahoo is the one I use most (however I do have one friend that insists on using Microsoft...) I rarely use the ICQ (only once or twice actually), dont use the msn thing much, and do enjoy the yahoo most. I should also point out, the free email does come with the yahoo and msn, both are easy to use, but msn gets tons of spam, I dont post these email addresses anywere, and yahoo gets a few spam per month, MSN gets a few spam per hour. I used to delete this spam (and use the MSN "report as spam" feature, but got tired of loggin into hotmail just to delete spam, I expect my MSN mail will fill and lock out spam eventually.
