Simkl: instant message archiving now open to public
If the thought of a third party (besides the actual service provider) archiving your instant messages doesn't bother you, you can try out the service for a week for free. The history viewer is web-based, and you can do full-text searches on your IM history.
Simkl supports most of the popular IM clients including Yahoo, MSN, AIM, Pidgin, iChat, ICQ, Trillian, and Adium. Keep in mind that many of these IM clients like Pidgin and Trillian can log your chats individually, but if you use multiple computers with different IM clients, Simkl can unify your IM logging.

Using this service as a proxy means that all data is sent to the servers of this company. Username as well as password, is that correct?

If your password is sent through proxy server, the password will be encrypted by your software anyway, so it is still secure.

I wouldn't use it if it were free.

Why not just go all web-based and use meebo.com No need to install any chat client software AND it will save your chat history... for free!

No Skype?

I was just thinking about this feature a couple of month ago. I have 3 computers that I'm working at and this website saves a grate deal of time for me without frustration. Meebo is not so good for constant chatting, you can close browser by mistake sometimes. I will definitely try Simkl.
