Does Gaim support secure instant messaging (encrypted IMs)?
Short answer: Yes, use the SILC protocol.
Long Answer (for other protocols): Not natively. Doing secure instant messaging right is a big deal and requires, among other things, an authentication scheme. Simply encrypting your data stream without verifying the party with whom you are chatting is not secure in any way; some other clients offer options like this, but we feel that such measures instill a false sense of security that is more harmful than helpful.
There are a number of 3rd party plugin developers working on developing a secure IM framework, the better ones using the GnuPG and the OpenPGP trust model for authentication. If you are serious about secure instant messaging, read the documentation on the "web of trust" model available at www.gnupg.org and try out one of these.
Tehát más hálózatokra (a SILC-n kívûl) csak külsõ plugin segítségével lehet GAIM-on keresztûl "titkosított" csevegést létrehozni.
