Trillian is just a client to access all the other services. You are not signing
up for a screen name on Trillian. The way it works is you tell Trillian you
want to connect to the, for example, Yahoo Instant Messenger network, and then
you enter the screen name you use for Yahoo. If you don't have one, you can
create one. What I did when I started using Trillian way-back-when, I went to
all the networks and created a screen name on all of them. The only one I
already had was ICQ. But, I created one for all the others. I know you say you
don't want to sign up to anything, but you can give bogus info on all of them.
That's what I did. Even ICQ doesn't have my correct info, and I've been using
ICQ from almost the very beginning. Also... with Trillian, if there's an IRC
room you frequent often, you can also use it to go onto IRC. You should really
give it a try. Get the free version, and if you like it you get the Pro
version, which has afew more extra features, which aren't really necessary but
are nice. And, the cost is only $25.

One more question Dave, do you create your own screen name, or have to
have one from one of the sources. What I'm trying hard to do is stay
absolutely AWAY from signing up to anything from MSN, AOL, etc.
Occasionally, it might be nice to have to talk to the other mods here,
etc. I have this machine soooooo nice now, I don't want to screw it
up with a security risk, etc.
BTW, I almost bought a dream machine last night.
Dell
3.2 Mhz
2 gig RAM
(2) 120 G HDs
RAID 0
Audigy soundcard, etc.
I saw it late last night and by the time I talked to my wife and
decided to buy it.......it was gone :-[
