I have three screenames:
The first and second are for friends, and the third I made for my high school club. I use the link screen names feature to manage them all when I’m online under one sn. Is there a way I can set an away message for one and not the other two? (I want to leave away message info for the club sn, but just be normally online for the other two.) I generally use my first sn to sign on.

Thanks for any advice on how to do this…

I realized I could use Cloning to open two or three buddy list windows, which is available on this add-on http://www.big-o-software.com/products/aimplus/ . Would that solve the aim away message situation I’m having?

What AIM enhancing program do you guys think is the best? I had middle man once but I didn’t like it all that much.

personally, i like messenger mate but it’s not free. i found no way to stop the away messages from coming up on linked names. it was a problem because there is more then one person here in the house that uses the computer and it got so confusing that we ended up just getting on aim through the website.
