Memberi had something similar to this. if you go to http://www.jayloden.com and run the AIM remove tool (or something along those lines), it should remove it. running this program worked for me and my roommate. she was the one who gave it to me.
so try it out, and keep us posted if it worked or not.

MemberOk hold on let me show you how…do you have virus scan on your computer or like firewall or spyware scan? run this free virus scan http://housecall.trendmicro.com/housecall/start_corp.asp and you should download a spyware scan to scan your computer http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/details.aspx?FamilyID=321cd7a2-6a57-4c57-a8bd-dbf62eda9671&displaylang=en&Hash=W6YFBY9

MemberUninstall and reinstall AIM.
Uninstall AIM by going to “Start > All Programs > AOL Instant Messenger > Uninstall AOL Instant Messenger”
Then redownload AIM at: http://ftp.newaol.com/aim/win95/Install_AIM.exe
Or get an older AIM version at http://www.oldversion.com
