First result I hit was Off-The-Record messaging, an Encryption/Authentication add-in for Pidgin.  It can still utilize 
AIM, MSN, GTalk, etc. as the backend. Not sure what your constraints are or if you're looking for something that's 
through and through encrypted IM.

Let us know if that's along the lines you're looking for.

Subject: Looking for a "secure" alternative to MSN.

So, I'm looking for an IM client with strong encryption. Ideally with audio/video support, and open source.
Like Msn sort of.. Preferably not som addon to msn though. I know there is a lot of those.
It's incredible I can't find this. I'd be amazed if there's no IM client that is capable of encryption.

Thanks!
