MemberI hope someone can figure this one out…
I use AIM chat a lot, and recently I started having problems. If I enter a chat and don’t type anything, I stay in and everything is OK. As soon as I start typing and entering text, within a minute or less I get kicked out. Usually, the Online Host will say “Your participation in this chat has been suspended” and then I get a popup error message that says “Cannot join room ___” (whatever the room is). After that, I can’t get into another chat room for hours. When I try, I just get the same error popup (“Cannot join room ____”).
I’ve tried everything I can think of. I tried logging on from my laptop, and the same thing happens. I’ve reset my IP address, and signed on from different screennames. I restarted my computer. I did a virus scan and ran Spy Sweeper (don’t know what the point in that was, though). I also upgraded AIM and adjusted my settings to turn off my buddy icon and reject Direct Connect etc.
No matter what I do, it still happens. I don’t see other people having this problem, and obviously I can’t get any tech support from AOL.
Please help if you have any suggestions. Everything was working fine for a while, and then this started happening suddenly a few days ago.
Please help!

MemberI’ve found that the AIM chats are hardly even worth visiting anymore because they’ve been overrun by pornography and other advertising bots. It’s nearly impossible to hold a steady conversation in their chats, and the ratio of bots to humans is staggering and clearly in favor of the bots.

MemberWell, it’s still happening. I tried Trillian and basically the same thing happens. I click on a chat room from the aim.com list, and occasionally it works, but usually I get an error message in the status window: “*** General error when attempting service redirection on service 0x0d”. Anyone know what this is?
