The newer IM versions (from 2.0 on) require carbonlib. (part of OS 8.5 on)
Carbon lib works with 8.1 and allows many "OS 8.5 Minimum" apps to run with
8.1. It's available for free download from Apple at:
http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=120047  Put it into your
extensions folder and restart. It doesn't help all apps, but should work with
IM as the IM software install says "carbon lib" version.
