    I don't think it's on them. Web messenger is probably a better bet.

    If you want to install any application on UCD computers, it's got to be "self-contained" and able to work from your H: drive, since that's all that is persistent from PC to PC. Pidgin Portable should work OK for this, though I haven't tried it for myself. You might need to enter the HTTP Proxy settings - proxy.ucd.ie:8484.
