Five Best Instant Messengers
Check out this Lifehacker post about the Five Best Instant Messengers. I often find myself forwarding this link to my friends when they tell me that they're still using AOL's Instant Messenger application (complete with advertising).
You can find upgrades to your current IM situation regardless of your operating system. I like Adium for OS X, and Digsby for Windows. When I'm not on a personal computer, it's the web application Meebo for me. All of the apps mentioned can do multiple protocols at once, meaning that I can be connected to my friends on Facebook, GMail, Yahoo! IM, and AIM all at once.

Of course, on the Mac the primary AIM client is iChat, and it doesn't have ads. On Windows, I use AIM Lite. This is a client from AOL that doesn't show any ads.
If you want to get a great IM you could always get Brosix. It has a lot of features like file share and video chat. A must for any list in me perspective.
