Skype, Windows Messenger, and AIM, all seem to be supported by Jaws, though I've only used the first two. I was also able to use ICQ about seven years ago, but I haven't used it since then, so can't vouch for the more recent versions of the program. Finally, I have also used Google Talk, and I found the experience to be unpleasant and difficult at best.

Of course, this is just with Jaws. Other screen readers may give different results.
