Hi,

The two best Instant messaging clients for linux are GAIM and AMSN.
GAIM is the best (which supports MSN/ICQ/AOL/Yahoo and lots more)
AMSN Is the second best and is based on tcl, and is only for MSN.

Now, Connecting to IM networks through proxies esp socks proxies has always remained a problem and only a few people are able to connect their IM clients through a proxy , be it in windows or in linux.

Try changing the proxy configuration in amsn, or get hold of GAIM and install it.may be gaim would work with your proxy.

Download Gaim 0.67 released on 15th august from:


http://gaim.sourceforge.net

Hehe, i think i already said that gaim and amsn are the best two msn IM clients for linux.

Both AMSN and Gaim do have proxy support, but many people here have proxies that arent compatible with gaim or amsn.

ANywayz, try upgrading to the latest version of gaim from gaim.sourceforge.net and AMSN from amsn.sourceforge.net
