Remove ads in AIM Triton!

I have found a way to enable a hidden tab in the preferences, which gives you control over ads!

Instructions:

1) Make sure all AIM processes are closed first! Force them closed from the task manager.

2) Open “C:Program FilesCommon FilesAOLAIMBetaservicesimAppver0_1_12contentprefsprefsContainer.box” in WordPad (DO NOT use NotePad, as it won’t save properly)

2) Search for “TabAds”

3) Change the following line:
[/CODE]
to

[CODE][/CODE]

4) Save file and open AIM. There will be a new tab named “Ads” in the preferences, allowing you to resize the adverts and even shut them off.

I’ve attached my copy of the file incase you don’t feel like doing the work. Just overwrite your old version with my modded one.
