Multi Platform IM with webcam support

[earthguido]

Hi, I am looking for a multi platform instant messaging client, with webcam support. I´ve been using Miranda for the last years, but my kids recently found out how to turn on the camera in msn I now have the need for webcam support in msn, and Miranda does not provide it yet.

I also need multiplatform (XMPP/Jabber, Yahoo, IRC), just because.

I would like to know if anyone of you knows a good client (free) that fills all my irrational demands. Thanks!

I;d recommend Digsby. Best client around, and it's been my sole client (except for Skype and Xfire, which have their own clients) for most of my instant messengers.

The roadmap for Pidgin includes plans for MSN Webcam support in 3.0 (the current version is 2.7.2, so I wouldn't hold my breath).

You could try using website services instead of a desktop client:

Stickam

Thanks guys. Skype reboots my computer when I turn on the camera... tried updating the camera drivers without success.

Will try Digsby, and hold the breath for Pidgin 3.0. Thanks.
