    Fire: http://fire.sourceforge.net/
    Mercury: http://www.mercury.im/
    Pidgin: http://www.pidgin.im/

    I use Pidgin on Windows, so it might be the best.

    Adium is probably the best there is out there, on os x or PC.

    It's highly customizable. Check out some of the themes, you might be able to get one that looks like MSN.

    MSN lets me send offline messages.

    Have you go the latest version? I downloaded one about a month ago that was an update and apparently released in June but I never got notification of the update like you usually do.

    I've used mercury and adium in the past. I think mercury supports web cams.
