I even get impatient xforwarding things over a cable modem. :-) I've heard good things about centericq and screen but I've never used them. I use Windowmaker for my desktop and use either gaim or everybuddy for my chat client. I use gaim most of the time because they seem to be keeping up better with the way Yahoo has been futzing around with their protocol lately, although, aesthetically everybuddy does have a cleaner appearance. All I can recommend is try as many as you want and find one you like. Heck it's not like they aren't free ... Best regards, ninewands
