Adium is a Cocoa UI for libpurple, which is the same library Pidgin uses. It should (I haven't used it) work fine with SOCKS proxies, assuming Pidgin's support for proxies is implemented in libpurple. Adium also uses OTR for its encryption protocol, which is the same protocol that pidgin-OTR uses. XChat, irssi, and a few other clients also support OTR. I don't think Adium will work with the pidgin-encryption plugin, which just does plain RSA encryption. But OTR is better anyways.
