Yes, a google IM service. You can find it
here.
"They say talk is cheap. Google thinks it should be free. Google Talk enables you to call or send instant messages to your friends for free–anytime, anywhere in the world. Google Talk offers you:
Choice: Get in touch over email, IM or a call
Quality: Talk through your computer but hear your friends as if they were in the same room
Convenience: Your Gmail contacts are pre-loaded into Google Talk so inviting or talking to your friends is just a click away
Google Talk is in beta and requires a Gmail username and password.
Don't have Gmail? Get an account using your mobile phone (US only). "
"Google Talk is not a telephony service and cannot be used for emergency dialing"
I just got done downloading, now to test it out.

Usually I don't ever like to call people out blatantly on forums or anything.
But, dude.
You're like the last person on the planet using Windows Millennium Edition.
I mean, Microsoft even wrote this support article.

what does Beta mean?
12 October 2005, 01:21 UTC#6
beta
/bay't*/, /be't*/ or (Commonwealth) /bee't*/ n. 1. Mostly
working, but still under test; usu. used with `in': `in beta'. In
the Real World, systems (hardware or software) software often go
through two stages of release testing: Alpha (in-house) and Beta
(out-house?). Beta releases are generally made to a group of lucky
(or unlucky) trusted customers. 2. Anything that is new and
experimental. "His girlfriend is in beta" means that he is still
testing for compatibility and reserving judgment. 3. Flaky;
dubious; suspect (since beta software is notoriously buggy).
Basicly its the second stage of testing where they let other people outside the company test it and report bugs...
