Hey Mark, I know you love to flame people for asking stupid questions (I don't like doing other people's research either so i don't blame you) so I was surprised you responded to his statement so quickly. Vic:"But.... irc does work with Mac and Linux..... Yahoo chat does not. so it's a toss up" This was EXTREMELY difficult to find but I found it; http://messenger.yahoo.com/ On this very difficult to find URL it has links to downloads for the windows verison... and the mac and unix with the flavors of linux, solaris and freeBSD. And if for some reason your not one of the 99.99% of people out there that use one of these operating systems then maybe you can just use the web version (java applet). Yahoo IM kicks ass. Free, has voice and web cam and it has voice conferencing which kicks ass for gaming. Best of all, works well across most networks (MSN IM often has problems unles you specifically open it up). Mike

That's true - forgot about that point - and it's a good one. I imagine many people on the list are running Linux or 386 Solaris or Free BSD. I have Red Hat 7.3 on one of my workstations.
