No, only AOL can do this, since it’s their servers.

Not too sure what ports AIM can connect on…
However, you could try toc.oscar.aol.com on port 80, but I’m not too sure if that’ll work.

ParticipantJust do an auto-configure.
I have use port 13 becuase 5190 is blocked. This is just the situation on mine, yours may differ.
