Looks like they may be releasing a web browser plugin which you may be able to get working with konqueror/mozilla: http://www.linuxplanet.com/linuxplanet/reports/4921/1/ It may be easier to find a native GNU/Linux app that will achieve what you want.

Since the PalTalk service is geared to Windows users, one of Katz's current initiatives is to convert from a stand-alone client software application to a browser plug-in client. Of course, the browser would be Internet Explorer. That's okay with Katz, because his main objective is to provide a service and building plug-ins for his Windows-based customers just makes total business sense for him.
