    Title. Which do you prefer to use the most as your IMing system?

    I have all three but I prefer MSN cause most people have it.

    Edit: I only used MSN because some people still have MSN, And people might not of known what WLM meant.

    I'd prefer MSN most cuz nearly everybody in my whole school has MSN so therefore more contacts on MSN...so MSN it is..
     
    I use my YIM as an account to chat to people, and MSN everything else. Oh, and I don't have AIM.
     
    MSN, as WLM can also chat to people using YIM... + my friends use Msn.
     
    It was just around for too long for people to stop calling it MSN xP

    Anyway, yeah. I use MSN/WLM. I have YIM too, but I don't use it.
     
    Windows Live Messenger. It seems as if I'm one of three or four people in the whole school who actually use that engine.

    Yes, I do call it MSN. That's what it is in root after all!
     
    Most of my friends and the people in my area use AIM. I actually use an old school version of AIM, with DeadAIM installed over it. I use MSN (or WLM) to talk to my friends from some other areas of the world, and all my friends from here at PC. I actually prefer the simplicity of AIM, I think. Maybe I'm just partial to it though because I've used it a lot more and for a lot longer.
     
    I use MSN most of the time, installed AIM the other day to talk to people who aren't allowed to have MSN, but I prefer MSN. I also use Xfire quite alot, it's nice to talk to friends you met in-game

    What is with people and calling WLM, MSN?

    My answer: WLM

    It's the MSN protocol; WLM just happens to be the official Microsoft client on Windows. But it's most likely that people call it MSN because that was the client's name for so long, and it's stuck.

    Anyways, MSN, exclusively. I have an AIM, but never use it. It doesn't matter how good a service is, if your friends aren't on it, you probably won't use it. And MSN seems to be the choice of just about everyone here. Functionally, it seems better than AIM anyways. o.o;
     
    I mostly use AIM, because It's probably the least confusing of the three, and it's what most of my friends use.

    I have an MSN messanger account, but I hardly ever sign on anymore. Not alot of people use it.
     
    Its funny, where I am everyone uses AIM so thats what I use. I think all the base clients, WLM, TIM, and AIM Triton all suck it hard though. I'm not a fan of MSN either...I don't entirely like the way it works.
     
    AIM has the ugliest interface I've ever encountered in an instant messaging client. I have an AIM id but I don't even have the client on any of my computers, I think. o_o; I used to use YIM exclusively back when I first started using the internet, but I never touch it anymore. XD;

    Long story short, I use MSN/WLM (depends on the computer because WLM only works with XP and up). Everyone here uses it as their client and most people either haven't heard of or don't even bother with the others, so I have no reason to keep them. o_o
     
    I use AIM. It is the only messenger that anyone around here really uses. Not too many people know of YIM or WLM
     
    I use MSn out of any of the ones listed. MSN is like...my life. Without it I just can't be on the computer.

    My first messenger wasnt MSN...but it was Yahoo. Yet, I can only use MSN because that's where I have must of my friends. So yeah~
     
    I am disgusted at the lack of ICQ on here. :O In short, my favourite protocol is ICQ. But I can live with MSN protocol but I'll be using AMSN, thanks. :p
     
    MSN is fine for me; I like GTalk too. AIM I only use when I can't avoid it, and I sign into YIM maybe once a year.
