Answering your question about "names" of instant messaging systems out there, the one at the forefront in business is Microsoft Office Communicator. It's a closed system (so people with an MSN account can’t go an chat with their friends outside of the workplace), it can also offer presence and offers a full audit trail of conversations as well.
Someone asked about this a couple of days ago... Here is the link:

Good luck.

We have Sametime (embedded in Lotus Notes) available
although not everyone uses it.
We had it as a live Beta when the BT fire happened in
Manchester a few years ago, and, it was a lifesaver as for
three days it was the ONLY real-time communications we had
between sites,
In terms of general use, I find it's fantastic for 'quick' questions
where you don't really need to call.
