webeagle12 Posted June 25, 2004 Share Posted June 25, 2004 I think you can remove YAHOO name from there since YAHOO start blocking 3rd party users Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dane2003 Posted June 25, 2004 Share Posted June 25, 2004 Trillian Pro definatly is NOT worth $25.00 USD. Download the individual clients, Get Messenger Plus! for MSN and your set. If you need a whole new client to manage your IMs, then your too lazy and im sorry for you. Also, it definatly is buggy, my friend uninstalled it because of the bugginess in 2.

+Warwagon MVC Posted June 25, 2004 Author MVC Share Posted June 25, 2004 Buggy? ...I wouldn't call it buggy at all its never crashed. The only time it did was the fault of the yahoo server blocking. I for one do not like to have 2 or 6 (how ever many IMs you use) memory sucking application for IM when it can all be acomplished in 1 and takes up the mem of just 1 messenger yes computers have lots of memory these days, but I prefer a 6 in 1 as far as the file transfers... maby its just me but AIM if 1 person is not behind a firewall it may work... MSN always seems to work ...but yahoo... heck I can't even get yahoo messenger itself to transfer files until the 3rd try Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kupotek Posted June 28, 2004 Share Posted June 28, 2004 Yup Trillian fixed that Yahoo connectivity problem in record time, like a DAY. two tops. And its been working ever since. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
naap51stang Posted June 28, 2004 Share Posted June 28, 2004 Sounds like someone trolling to me........... I've been using Trillian for well over a year and 1/2. Used the free one for a while, but then PAID for the pro version. Why? I like it, it keeps my windows from being cluttered with IM clients, I don't have to close a bunch of nagging ad windows, I don't have to see stupid ads in the chat client, I don't have to listen to idiotid sounds or buddy icons, It's stable, the guys writting it stay on top of security issues, there aren't any leaks.........can I say more? :alien: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kupotek Posted June 29, 2004 Share Posted June 29, 2004 Personally I am loving the tabbing options :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ivand Posted July 1, 2004 Share Posted July 1, 2004 Woah, nice review warwagon :D and back on trillian , I love that app, back in teh days of using ICQ/Yahoo!/Msn toguther It was the only way of unclutter my desk, now I only use MSN so I dont need it anymore ;) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
futb0l Posted July 3, 2004 Share Posted July 3, 2004 GAIM has tabbing as well. I don't use Trillian simply because MSN(MsgPlus!) has way better features now, such as the Handwriting plug-in and screenshot sender, I just love those plug-ins. Can't go back to Trillian now.

CDog Posted July 3, 2004 Share Posted July 3, 2004 Great review :) My only comment/addition would be to have shown off one of the better skins, like Aikon3 - which I use...and of course, there are LOADS of customisation options which I understand would take forever to go through :happy: Trillian does support file transfers for all the different instant messenger protocols, but the only one that works and even works behind a firewall is ?MSN?. Trying to send something to someone on a Yahoo account almost never works, and you can only get your AIM transfer to connect if the moon happens to be in the right phase. Tends to work for me just fine, my only complaint with transfers on Trillian is that they tend to be a little on the slow side at times. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Michael1406 Posted July 5, 2004 Share Posted July 5, 2004 Each to their own, but as I use MSN 99.9% of the time, I only need MSN. AIM is my backup client. (*Remembers the days when MSN went down and he used AIM to ask if MSN was working for people*) MSN on its own has practically all of those features...you just have to get them yourself. That's what I don't like about Trillian - no MsgPlus. Other than that, it rules as an IM client. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But if your like me and use all of the IM clients all the time, I would never want 3 different programs running just to talk to people. TP is one of the best all in 1 IM clients, it does it's job and has never crashed for me. It was definately worth the $25 charge. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+Warwagon MVC Posted November 2, 2004 Author MVC Share Posted November 2, 2004 I would love to see the feature where a IM tab turns green when the person is typing a message Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
