Microsoft Live Communications Server (MS LCS) and Microsoft Communicator use
the standard SIP/SIMPLE, which Gaim 2.0.0 beta 3 supports (but it's a new
protocol and may be buggy).
HOWEVER, apparently Microsoft is using a non-standard and non-open login
procedure to authenticate clients, and Gaim does not correctly implement this.
We're tracking it in bug 1384616:
