Alternatively...<shameless plug>...you could install debian...(the CD Images work well if u r prepared to download them...certainly better than using disks and downloading from the bootstrapper)...and 'apt-get install jabber'...</shameless plug>...sadly the isntall program has a bit of a learning curve (same applies with cygwin I expect)...so you could go with mandrake or redhat (but do enjoy the package dependency problems) Matthew Bell ps.
