Miranda IM is a multi protocol instant messenger client for Windows. It is designed to be resource efficient and easy to use. It uses very little memory, requires no installation and can easily be carried around on a single floppy disc. The goal of this project is not to duplicate the functionality of AOL's ICQ Client, but to design a client that has the basic features that is designed for mouse-less operation with a small memory requirement.

    The constant updates are really starting to get on my nerves. Just when I start it up I have to close it down and if it's not once a week it's twice a week. And everytime they send me to that #!%& donation page.

    Reviewing 0.9.0 Beta 2 (Aug 8, 2010)

    I have my gripes. It's not perfect, but it's the best I've found. Trillian is more than I need, and you have to pay for the good features. Miranda is running, using peak memory of 7.5MB, and I'm connected to 5 messaging services with several tabs open.

    I have had some issues with the contact list flashing white over and over. There's no real way to block requests from people not on your list, so sometimes I get spam invites. I'm sure there's a few other things I can't think of at the moment.

    Overall though, it's still a great, clean interface, with tons of options.
