Download Miranda IM 0.6

Yesterday a new stable version of Miranda IM was released. Miranda IM is an open source instant messaging program that supports many networks such as ICQ, IRC, MSN, AIM, Jabber, Yahoo and Lake. Another strong point is the almost Spartan-looking interface, mainly intended for people who are not so charmed by all the ‘MSN violence’. The functionality can be further expanded with so-called addons and the appearance can also be completely adjusted to your own taste. New in version 0.6 is support for UPnP, which should benefit sending files, among other things. There is also support for UTF-8 strings, improved support for tabs and a large number of bug fixes. The full changelog looks like this:
