Java based IM ?

Hi,

Being @ work makes it hard to chat with people. I was wondering if there are any Java based Instant Messengers that I could connect with my AOL and MSN accounts?

I was using Sprint's IM to connect with MSN but they made it a paid service and if I used it for 8hrs a day it would cost over $100 per day!

So anyone know of a better way or other programs out there?

Thanks,
Ren

I use Trillian for any kind of instant messenger, but it requires a download. Yahoo have a version of their instant messenger in Java format, but that's all I know of.

yeah I've tried Trillian and such but the thing is my company blocks traffic to those sites

thats where the Sprint IM was so cool in that all the communication to Yahoo, AOL, and MSN took place @ Sprint not from my comp trying to communicate to AOL, Yahoo, and MSN

ICQ also have a java version too, but it has compatability issues with Trillian users.
