Everyone knows how much I love windows Users so I wrote another guide called “Instant Messaging using Libre Software for windows Users“.
The thing I didn’t mention in the guide is the issue of how other instant messenger clients leave you vulnerable to malicious code writers. They will infect your computer with spyware, malware, trojans, virus’s and worms and spread them to your friends. info, info, info
It may not meet everyone’s needs but its worth taking a look.
