If you are using gaim 1.5.0 or a 2.0.0 beta less than 3.1 you need to upgrade MSN will not work in any gaim version less than 2.0.0 beta 3.1. MSN made a change which causes those versions of gaim to crash.

You add Google Talk users by using Buddies->Add a Buddy with your jabber account. And I don't know how to get notifications for just one thread, there may be an account option for that I'm really not sure. I'd kind of hope that you would automatically get further responses to threads in which you have posted but that might be hoping a bit much.

`gaim -n`
I think the culprit is MSN. I don't have a MSN account but a hotmail account

Thx. That did the trick. I am new to gaim. How do I add gmail users? Also, how do I receive automatic notifications to this thread?
