Using XMPP for Facebook chat

I am posting this in it's own thread as it's usually hidden in other threads. It's just taken from my original post.

Step by step instructions.
1 - Go to http://www.facebook.com/sitetour/chat.php and click on Other in the centre list.
2 - You will be asked to select a username if you haven't already.
3 - Open Digsby and Digsby then My Accounts...
4 - Click Add IM Account and select Jabber
5 - Click Advanced and put in the following details

Jabber ID: - This is the username you just chose followed by @chat.facebook.com
Password: - Your Facebook password
Host: - chat.facebook.com
Port: - 5222
Resource: - Leave this as Digsby for now
Priority: - Leave this as 5

At the bottom you should select No Encryption and untick Allow Plaintext Login.

And that's it. You are good to go.
