Hi, I like being able to send animated gifs and custom icons in MSN, but I don't want to use MSN as i want to log into multiple protocols at once, aka yahoo, icq, aim + msn. Is there a multi-protocol client (free) that can send and receive customised icons/emoticons? I am using WinXp Thanks!

I found one multi-protocol, multi-OS IM before and its an open source free ware called Miranda, Check it out if it may suite you. When it comes to animated gif, I believe all support that image type, the problem usually why an animated gif don't animate is because of it size - it too large, you probably have notices some avatar here that has the same problem.
