Recommend Product: NO

As a Proteus registered and long standing user I've finally trashed anything related to Proteus. Adium is by far better and you do not run the risk of having to redo your IM accounts like you do with Proteus. Once Proteus was the standard, but now it is simply half of what Adium is today. If you want to save money and get a much better IM client then trash Proteus--before--Proteus trashes files on your Mac, then download and start using Adium which is superior. Don't believe me? I didn't think Adium was that much better until version of Proteus 4.0.8 that forced me to try another client and so I chose Adium.--Adium rocks! I'm never looking back...

4.0.9 is no better. There is absolutely no reason to pay for this IM client when others are vastly better.

No More Proteus - Ypmits

Exactly the same feeling that I have. Proteus rocked for a while, but today there is nothing... again...."NOTHING" like the beauty that is called 'Adium'. Adium is a very natural Cocoa app. Can't be happier with adium!

No More Proteus - « cyberhomie™ »

I would have to say the same. I am a reg user also, but Adium has pounced Proteus and for $15 less!

Wanna do me a favor and tell me *why* Adium is better than Proteus? Give me some concrete reasons.
