Pros
Runs on Linux, FreeBSD, and MAC with just wine and ie6. Been using winbus on debian linux for near 4 years now and never had one single error or problem.
Cons
The fact that its beta still, it has frequent updates.
Summary
Out of all the private messengers out there, I would only use winbus. It does everything I need in a messenger, and then some.

Hello WinBus users i've noticed in the last few days people have had issues with their voice in WinBus chat, Lee has done all he can do to troubleshoot this issue and we have the datacenter looking into it now but a few users let users from the rooms in their pc's to try to help them if you need support for WinBus you should only let the WinBus assigned Admins help you, it's nice to have people try to help us out and try to tell the users ways to fix things but connecting to a users pc should only be done by the assigned admins for WinBus support
(why would you let anyone let alone these people access your pc remotely on the pretext of them helping you with so called issues with winbus ? ), a very dubious practice and not the sort of advice you would exspect from any admin , would you let a total stranger access to your pc ? , welcome to a botnet .

Hello users of WinBus, this post was made by Wolfie from Viprasys the top site for trojan's on the internet a lot of users from viprasys are upset over Yahoo shutting down so they're trying to stop any new chat system from making it, Winbus has been around for 4 years kinda funny nothing was said until Yahoo shut down and people like wolfie had no place to go to chat because they know nothing but drama and starting trouble, Cnet has already took posts down from him about WinBus because they were proven to be lies, CNET scans every part of any program they let companies post on here when i submit an update CNET does not post it for almost a week because their team goes through the whole program to make sure it's clean before posting

Hello Winbus users this is herb an admin from winbus this review will be removed he has posted a thread on the cnet forums and the cnet admins locked his thread and pretty much told the users he was lying because he was upset so now he comes here
Pros
Nice clean interface that's skinable to match your desktop. Very easy to use. Nice safe chat rooms.
Cons
I know its BETA, and there coming soon, but webcams would be great.
Summary
All in all a nice little messenger, and chat program. The voice was kinda shakey in the user made rooms, but since they more less fixed that, theres really no complaints from me.
