Personally I use Skype. I think it has more useful options.

Yahoo Messenger:
Advantages:
Can speak to people on msn and on yahoo.
Can use it in your email aswell.
Disadvantages:
Not all features are available ie.pictures,colour font's etc.
Can't view a webcam.
Skype:
Advantages:
You can speak to people in diffrent countries.
You can use it as an instant messenger.
Disadvantages:
Can not think of any.
So i think Skype is better.

Well i'm using Skype since 2001 and ICQ since 1997 and i honestly cannot tell which one is better but i think skype, just because it is getting one of the most famous chat softs, and more and more ppl are starting to use it so i guess - SKYPE!!!
