I've tried Trillian a few times and never really liked it. After using Linux for a while, I have become accustomed to Gaim. Like others though, I stuck with the regular AIM client on Windows until recently. I'm starting to use Gaim most of the time now, so we'll see how that goes. Gaim actually looks pretty nice if you have a program like WindowBlinds to skin Windows XP.

For those die hard AIM client fans, you can download a program called <a href="http://aftermath.dyndns.org:8888/~aimadhack/">AIM Ad Hack</a> that will get rid of all the ads and pointless "features" included with AIM. I've been using it for a while, and believe me, you won't miss the ads. You can get the old AIM client or the beta version of AIM Triton, which finally incorporates a lot of features that have been available in other chat clients for a while now.
