Testimonial
To begin with, Fire was just there to use whenever MSN really was just not going my way. Then you added the option to have a metal skin, so regularly found in other programs. Once I realized I could have Fire speak when certain people logged in, immediately getting my attention, Fire became my primary chat client. Even with the release of MSN Messenger 3.5, I still can’t help but use Fire because of its added benefits. For something free, it certainly shines above what else there is available.
