instant messaging in your country....

as far as i know in the US, the most widely used instant messaging service would be that of AOL instant messenger and perhaps icq coming in at a somewhat more distant second. I'm pretty sure that AIM isn't really widely used outside of the US and i was wondering what Instant Messenger services are widely used in your country.

personally i use AIM and on a rare occasion i use ICQ, although i did recently dl yahoo IM because AIM is banned at my girlfriends work.

what do you use?

msn is most common here but...
why choose if you can have everything?

I definately think MSN is the most widely used IM program around here, and probably the world.

i'm always on aim and irc, and i pop on msn sometimes. icq annoys me for some reason.

I only use AIM...I used to use ICQ too but it is annoying and crashes often.

fuck AIM the worst IM proggie

i prefer MSN (more stable , no fuckin pop-up , no complicated settings) and of course mIRC

ICQ used to be good ... too bad it crashes often and eats a lot of RAM

I'm guessing ICQ is the most used instant messenger i denmark... everbody seems to use it.

No popup... i haven't used it for a while, but i do remember that popup thingy "blala is logged on"

Ok it's not a popup/advertising, but still i did crash every game i played if someone logged on.
