Like I said though, it would be good to have a multiple protocol client like Trillian is to MSN AIM ICQ YAHOO and IRC chat networks.

And also DC is NOT without their bugs or inadequacies but when it comes to actually GETTING files I can assure EVERYONE that from MY OWN experience it is FAR better than any other network hands down!

Remember that things do change and so if you have NOT checked it out lately then I suggest you DO so before suggesting it is worst than Usenet *shakes head*. Because THAT is FAR from the truth.

I am not loyal to anything online as the internet is so a dynamic. I always come back to give things another chance to see if it has evolved into something worth while.
