I use Adium and Pidgin/Gaim.

Adium is definitely the best IM client have have yet used, it's well polished, stable and a very good feature set. The only drawback... it doesn't run on Windows.

I use Skype because most of time we use the voice between 4 or 5 friends or family at same time.

AIM, Google Talk, and Google Hello

People forget that Google runs two chat programs. Google Hello is MUCH faster when sharing files though.

I use Aim and Google Talk for my closest and best friends. Otherwise I use Pidgin (the big brother of Gaim, but I didn't feel marking it as Gaim would be right). It runs a second aim account, Yahoo!, MSN, and ICQ for me in one window I can minimize when Outsiders need to talk to me in real time and not email.

None at the present. But if I was going to put one on this computer, it would be Trillian, which I've used in the past.

Great Poll Rob!

I voted AIM simply because it was usually the only way I could contact my 'kids' when they were away from home. (Seems everyone used it back then).

VERY rarely even use an IM client these days...suppose I still keep it around, well, 'just cuz'.

Using MSN and Yahoo. Don't IM much with either but they are handy for notifying on received email.

On windows I prefer Miranda IM as it has the most eyecandy and tweaking

On linux I use Pidgin which is what Gaim is called now

the only one I use now is Windows Live Messenger (MSN).
Used to be a fan of Yahoo! IM but most of my friends jumped ship to MSN.

I've installed Yahoo! Messenger again. I haven't used this in a long time. Maybe I'll get back into the chat room scene. *shrug*
