I successfully use Pidgin+OTR with Y!M, AIM, and GTalk fairly regularly.
I'm pretty sure I've used it with ICQ a fair bit, too, but right now I
just can't swear to it.  I know I've used it with MSN a lot, but then I
stopped using MSN entirely.  If you want to test Y!M, AIM, ICQ, or GTalk
with me, feel free to email me off-list.

What exactly do you need to know?  I use Pidgin+OTR on my laptop running
FreeBSD.
