I don't know how to install or do the necessary things and this is BUGGING me...
Please if you can help it would be greatly appreciated. I tried google and found some places but my mind is blank to what I read....

I have almost reached the regrettable conclusion that the Negro's great stumbling block in his stride toward freedom is not the White Citizen's Counciler or the Ku Klux Klanner, but the white moderate, who is more devoted to "order" than to justice; who constantly says: "I agree with you in the goal you seek, but I cannot agree with your methods of direct action"; who paternalistically believes he can set the timetable for another man's freedom; who lives by a mythical concept of time and who constantly advises the Negro to wait for a "more convenient season."
Head to GAIM's download page. If you have Mandrake Linux, download "gaim-0.64-1mdk.i586.rpm," otherwise download "gaim-0.64-1.i386.rpm". If you have a modern Linux distribution, you should just be able to double-click the file to install (it'll ask you for the root password).
After it installs, it'll put itself into some menu (depends by distro), look for "Instant Messenger" or "GAIM." If that fails, just run "gaim" to run it. Log into your AIM account the first time, and then somewhere there's an account menu to add your MSNIM account.

If you don't know the root password, you cannot install the program. Only superuser accounts may install stuff.
Secondly, if you do not understand the concept of a root account and you're using Linux, it's time to hit the books. You've got to walk before you can run.
K, actually my bro installed it. I'm just on to browse and that trying to get that above...
I'll go ask him.
Thanks
