Live Messenger alternative?

Kintaro:
I need one that supports webcams, pidgin is fine 99% of the time, however lack of webcam support means I have to load up Windows Live, and when Microsoft bricks my copy of Vista with an update to kill pirate copies, it will mean I have to load up VMware, Windows Version X, and then Windows Live. That would be frustrating. The codec might be heavily patented though :/.

Refalm:
I had good experiences with aMSN. Webcam works fine when your viewing the other party, I haven't tried webcamming myself, but it should work.

Windows version is still beta and has plenty of bugs.

It will have webcam support soon. Or at least that's what the site says. I personally like it more than aMSN.

Kintaro:
They said gaim (now known as pidgin) would have video support two years ago. Somehow I don't find these promises so promising.

worker201:
iChat!

Works especially well with a built-in iSight camera.
