AIM 5.5 does have the option to “ghost” yourself. You appear offline, but you can still recieve and send messages to people. It’s also good for tricking people out :P. If you have middleman, just type ‘/ghost’ in an IM to someone to ghost yourself (any version of aim). To unghost yourself, type ‘/unghost’.
In 5.5 you can appear offline by clicking the eye; it is really easy; you don’t have to have any screennames linked. Anyone can send you a message (only if they know you’re actually on and manually type in your name or you IM them first) and you can send anyone messages. a few of my friends on really old versions of AIM or AIM express have said they could not send me messages while invisible, but for most it works just fine.

What is the point of reactivating a topic a month old? All you did was restate what was stated above, except you are a month late. The point?
