smaragdus: My understanding is that they include all the popular plugins inside the distro. This is because plugin fragmentation and version issues were part of the reason for the Miranda NG code fork.

I really didn't like not being able to hit "enter" and have the message send. You can configure this behavior under options - Message sessions - General tab - Sending messages - checkbox "Send message on 'Enter'"

If that seems like a lot to go through to configure something fairly basic, that's kind of how this client works: a little confusing with a trade-off of intense customization.

IMPasswordDecryptor v2.1

lwc on 27 Jan 2023
  • 1MB (uncompressed)
  • Released on 2 Dec 2010
  • Suggested by guinness

IMPasswordDecryptor is able to instantly recover stored passwords from most popular instant messengers. Functional on Google Talk, MSN Messenger, AIM, Digsby, Trillian, Pidgin, Miranda, Mebo, and more.

Note:

  • The program only works if the user opts to save or remember the password so that the username and password are stored on the system. Rest assured though most messengers have an auto-login feature that requires the user account information including the saved password for subsequent logins.
  • The program later (in v3.0) changed its name to Messenger Password Decryptor), but the main website download link has switched to an encrypted installer instead of a ZIP there, thus linking to Softpedia.

Category:
Runs on:Win2K / WinXP / Vista / Win7 / Win8 / Win10
Writes settings to: None
Stealth: ? Yes
License: Freeware
How to extract: Download the ZIP package and extract to a folder of your choice. Launch IMPasswordDecryptor.exe.

Most of the messengers have the auto-login feature which requires the user account information including password to be saved for subsequent logins. If user opts to save or remember the password then the username and password are stored on the system in proprietary format.

v6.5 out, still portable?
