MSN / AOL Client option for Knoppix

HAving these Instant Messenging option are real powerful also for adoption of Linux and in particular Knoppix. I know they have these, but to actually have it working is another story - like actually importing your buddy lists from the servers.

Sorry to have multiple post, but I am giving my feedback based on the real needs of client adoptions. Thanks.

The MSN client's i've worked with in linux are: amsn, Kopete, Kmerlin, and through jabber with various clients.

I'd have to say that the best one is probably Kmerlin. amsn and kopete both crash a lot, and using msn through jabber would probably be "too complicated" for most people.
