I was just looking through my registry to find a key when I found “NoBlAdSound” with a value of 0. Does anybody know what it does? I thought it may have some connection to the sound adds.
I run AIM 5.5.3572 and DeadAIM 4.5 I found the key in HKEY_CURRENT_USERSoftwareAmerica OnlineAOL Instant Messenger (TM)CurrentVersionusers*user name*Buddy.it seems to me that it might stand for “No Buddy List Ad Sound” and a value of zero would mean “no” so it says “No to not having buddy list ad sound” so perhaps changing the 0 to a 1, thus turning it to “yes” might kill the audio ads…no im just guessing on all of this plus like the buddy list limit thing, it will probably reset every time you sign on
From the name of it, it does sound like it would have something to do with the sound ads. I played with it a little, setting it to 1, it didn’t seem to change any options that I could notice… Such as sound, and whenever you hit Okay or Apply on the AIM prefrences it would reset back to 0, even if you didn’t change anything. I am also running AIM 5.5.3572 and DeadAIM 4.5 and since DeadAIM kills sound ads, plus I have never gotten sound ads before I wouldn’t know how to test if it actually did anything.
