I have a work labtop and use aol aim. Aim starts ok at work but dosent startup using dialup at home. A few months ago I found a site with a config fix and it worked but now back at same issue and cant recall what I did or find the same site again to do the same config fix. AIM process is on but doesnt startup on my desktop and the AIM icon will disapear when I hover my mouse over it on the lower toolbar – can you help me? Thanks.
Yes, did not work. As I recall last time I fixed it I just cleared or unchecked a box in networking or other – I don’t recall the exact OS type config change but after I did it AIM came right. I should have saved that fix for later but didnt – don’t recall if it was a VPN issue or ? – Thanks for the reply.
thats strange.. i dont know what setting you mean. but aim should at least start up fine, even if it doesnt connect.
I bet it has a hack on it. Delete aim, then restart your computer. After that download it, restart computer and then see if it works
I uninstalled AIM then downloaded the install .exe then rebooted then installed and still same out come. I selected the dialup option during install. As before the process starts but no connection – the process does spike my CPU on task mannager and drops after I delete process. Any thoughts? I’ll keep looking for the site that had the config but not sure if I’ll find it – I think is was a change in inernet options or other just don’t recall. Thanks and please reply with any further options.
I was just wondering if you ever figured out your problem – I am having the same one and have no clue what to do. I’ve tried uninstalling it and downloading a newer version. However, no one’s screen names are working on any of the computer’s in our house, but we can log on at work or other locations.
