You can see foobar2000 and µTorrent in there as well. I have a ton of RAM but I'm not really prepared to use it if I don't have to :).

That program is so much more confusing than pidgin. Its just not as intuitive or nice looking. Besides pidgin uses like 20mb or something so its not huge.(I dont keep IM open all the time anyway)

I use Miranda as well. Did try Pidgin but Miranda was just so much more lightweight that's what I stuck with.

Windows Live Messenger is currently using 5,3 megabytes of ram on my computer. Since all my friends use solely MSN, I see no point in using another instant messaging application.

i use Miranda as well. it uses a bit more RAM here 1.3MB but that's still very small. and since I've been using it for so long, I'll keep on continuing to use it.
