You can also change contact list icons now with the new Icon Packs. Emoticon and Sound Packs have been moved to a more prominent location in preferences and are easier to change on-the-fly. Support for Twitter’s new retweet mechanism, Twitter Lists, a customizable timeout for notification windows, and the return of custom avatar support. You can now drag and drop one contact on top of another to instantly combine them into a MetaContact. A polished look and powerful new asset view feature that lets you browse through images sent and received help improve history. We now have more up-to-date Wikipedia data, and more relevant links for each popular term detected. Great for detecting NSFW links before you open them in browser, and will even resolve shortened links for you! Youtube links will show a preview image, too. Move your mouse cursor on top of links to preview. When talking to a MetaContact, if you receive a message from another of their usernames the window will automatically switch for you. You can now use notifications to directly retweet, reply to a tweet, and interface with mail right away. Trillian now supports signing in to WLM from multiple locations! File transfer speed has been improved (more to come), and mobile messaging is now supported.

Anyway, only 4 stars because of the increased adware aspect - and also keep in mind that it tries to install some unneeded crap during the setup process (be sure to uncheck it).

I upgraded to Pro before that, so I don't have that issue. However, many people complained the free version was lacking too many features which were exclusive to Pro users, so I guess you couldn't have it any other way. I am sure not everyone will like that, especially not the ads. Anyone who bought Trillian 5 Pro during the beta stage will be able to use the Pro features indefinitely as long as he/she sticks to 5.x releases. Pro users are ad-free and can use logs, but Pro membership needs to be renewed after one year. However, the free version has ads (!) and no chat logs. GUI seems cleaned up and efficient, more developed towards usage with social networks.Ĭompared to previous beta versions, the Pro membership model has changed: Almost all Pro features are now in the free version. Less bloated than previous version and also more efficient with system resources.
