Best and simple fics/icc client, removes everything but the chess. (which is most important)

On windows 7 64-bit using 64-bit JRE, Jin for windows (jin.exe) won't start. You have to use jin.jar (double click on it) to start the app. Also, the Documentation link has been down for a very long time. That said, JIn it's my favorite chess client (on windows AND linux)

Best linux client for ICC. Only drawback is that it crashes occasionally. The other Java client crashes more often so this is the best there is.

Great and neat piece of software if you're into chess.
