website = [http://qip.ru/en/ qip.ru/en/] The Quiet Internet Pager (QIP) is aninstant messaging client . It is aclosed source freeware developed by aRussia n developer Ilham Zyulkorneyev. Its most distinct feature is the "tabbed message window" -- instead of multiple message windows open when chatting with more people, only one window with several tabs is used. This is now no longer an advantage over the standard ICQ, as ICQ Version 6.0 now also includes this feature as standard. Advantages which do still exist include integrated mail.ru e-mail client, and a wide ranger of extra smileys. However, QIP still keeps the advantage of no advertisement in the application windows (leading to lower bandwidth usage) and much higher security standard.Pronunciation
According to developer "QIP" should be pronounced as ["kwip"] instead of more correct form ["kip"] . However ["kip"] is also used.
