Do you understand what Pidgin is? It's an instant messaging client,
somewhat like Yahoo! Messenger, AOL Instant Messenger, MSN Messenger,
etc. It supports multiple protocols (Yahoo, AIM, MSN, etc.) so you can
replace several of those programs with just Pidgin. (You can also use it
on Linux, but I really doubt you use Linux.)

I Google'd "Quicktate" and quicktate.com claims to be a "service which
transcribes your voicemails and personal notes...and delivers them to
you via email, text message, or [their] iPhone-compatible web widget".

This doesn't sound IM related (unless they offer IM as an additional
option). If this is the QuickTate you're talking about, you should
contact the QuickTate people for help. Also, you might want to consider
Google Voice instead, which does this and much more and is free.

If you're talking about something else, I can't make any sense of your
message.

This sounded familiar, so I looked in my archives to see if you were the
same person who had just asked about IE vs. Firefox. Indeed you were. I
replied previously:

You replied off-list (which is improper, please CC the list):
