    exactly!

    i mean the benefits you have got over the months or years you have used it, for free, far outweigh the hiccups it has when it goes down

    Yep the only tings that annoyed me a bit was all those stuff you can buy, but I use the MSN patch which remove all of that and allow you to run multiple instance of MSN, so no advertisement or anything... Otherwise I don't think it crashes that often frankly... Sometimes it does, but most software do...

    I'm using gaim too (even when I'm on windows). Its drawback is that it has no support for voice, video or the "special" smilies msn uses (although they're working on those).
    For me that's unimportant, but others may want these features...
