Windows Live Messenger

Windows Live Messenger combines the ability to chat with one or more friends online for fun, work, or both with voice, calling, video conference, gaming, and mailing functions. The program has not changed much from the previous versions in its core, but adds a great array of new features that the user can surely benefit from.

Yahoo! Messenger

Enjoy the best experience in instant messaging, having all your friends in just one window, no matter if they use Yahoo! Messenger or Windows Live Mesenger, making worldwide phone calls, to another PC or to a regular or mobile phone, playing games, listening music, sharing documents at the easiest way possible. This program is available in several languages.

Skype

Skype is an excellent piece of software that allows the user to call any other PC for free, or any phone number for a small fee. The call quality is remarkable, even on slow Internet connections. End-to-end encryption makes it safe to talk. Skype also offers instant messaging, conference and file transfer functions, and is available for multiple platforms.

MSN Messenger
