As dumb as it may sound, restart your computer, sometime the system may not recognize the hardware properly. also if you are using any IM, use their setup process.

I suggest you download an application called Trillian. It allows AIM, MSN, Yahoo, and a few others to IM each other.

There are a few ways to Yahoo! Instant Message: there's the regular IM interface, there's the cell phone version, there's the online version via a browser for those who don't have YIM installed.\n\nYIM works with Firefox.  However, it opens in a new window. So, make sure that popup windows are enabled, or press down on the "Control" key while clicking on the link to open your browser intstant messaging window.

there is a web service Meebo.com that allows you to sign in and use your existing im login and friends list.  it doesn't replace all the various brands, but it  does allow you to walk up to any pc and connect to the im that you normally use.

I'm not sure what you're trying to do, but this might work: http://www.saint-andre.com/jabber/xml-im.html

Check if you have a software or hardware firewall or both. If have software then try to disable it and retry IM just to test. If it works then you have to enable your IM software in your software firewall. If you have hardware firewall (linksys or d-link router) you may have to open up a port to get it to work though usually this is not the case for IM. \n\nWhat IM software are you using?

AIM does have a java based IM client.  You can to it in the link below or go to aim.com and click on aimexpress on the right side.  This will allow you to run AIM from a window instead of downloading the full app.  Only prob though...  You need java installed to run it.  No java, no aim express.

gaim is an IM [Instant Messaging] client that allows you to log on to different IM servers [Yahoo, Aol, MSN, Jabber] and chat. It's typically a Linux program but there's a windows version available.\n\nAdium has the same functionality but runs on the Apple Mac OS.

There are several programs that let you use different IM services in one program- the one I am using now is called Trillian, available at www.ceruleanstudios.com. There is a free version available, but there is also a paid, "Pro" version of Trillian, which has more robust features.\n\nGaim is an open-source alternative to Trillian, and It's also free. It is constantly being updated, and it's available at gaim.sourceforge.net. \n\nThere are several others, but that's all I can think of from the top of my head now.

Not Myspace IM but, Myspace gave me a virus from some jerk sending out "adult profile" friend requests. Be careful, Myspace has been very disappointing lately, between viruses and system failure, not being able to send messages, etc....
