Pros: I have found this browser to work quite well... nothing special about it... the websites' fonts and boxes look nicer than in other browsers.
Cons: Customization could be made more flexible and easier... after all, you DO come to expect easy from Apple!
Are you on facebook? brace yourself for the slowest browser on the planet!

Pros: It has a multi-line display that shows the operations you are doing. You can customize the key colors so you can see them better than the default values (what kind of a retard thought-up light yellow on light grey background?)
Cons: Some of my programs hang or do not start after I have used this program.
Paypal will not allow me to log in when this program is running (OK that's scary!).
I've had to reboot on rare occasions because of problems when it was TSR.
It is possible to load multiple instances of the same program accidentally if you forget it is already loaded.

Pros: The interface looks nice. Somewhat familiar to Pidgin users... makes me wonder. Nice minimalistic approach. Everything is well organized.
Cons: It doesn't work. Will connect and then you are thrown out again, from MSN and Yahoo and ICQ. ICQ reports obsolete chat client version, while the other networks just disconnect you. Isn't good!

Pros: This doesn't seem to do much extra than A windowsexplorer+adobereader combination. I find that windows explorer is just fine for managing my documents, with a preview function, and adobe reader that does pretty much everything else in my document that this is reported to do. (like handle how the document displays, etc).
Cons: these flash-nazis are always finding new ways to promote flash! flash was originally written to produce adware and banner ads. they of course found it new revenue streams, but it remains ad-production-ware. I of course, block flash in my browser. so using a flash install routine isn't going to work for me. I refuse to use a product that forces me to use flash.
besides, there is enough risk when installing new apps in a computer... who needs one that doesnt do much for you?

Pros: Digsby is very nice.
It unifies all the places we are called upon to chat/communicate with others, checking our email for new messages, ditto for facebook, unifies the different instant messengers, and (lacking in the version I tried but promised to be there soon) apparently allowing support for multiple IDs within a same messaging client.
Cons: Yahoo is the worse place for being harassed with spam I have ever seen. Especially if you are in any yahoo groups... spammers look up the lists and just fire away... I wouldn't be surprised if there was an automated procedure to do this!
In Yahoo, the problem gets addressed with a "report spam" function. This is lacking in digsby and the other clone messengers, and is the main cause fo rme not using it or any of the other ones. I try them again from time to time, but no one seems to want to bother adding this... yet, when you open ANY compatible messenger (not just digsby), you are bombardes with yahoo spam messages. It is enough to keep away and use the real yahoo messenger.
Also, I noticed that digsby does not adequately address the issue of refusing a contact to add you... if you say no, it just comes back next time!
