“Proxy lookup failed. Please veify that our proxy server is configured correctly in Connection preferences”
You receive this message? Just do this – verify proxy at settings page (“Setup” button on “Sign On” page -> “Sign On/Off” page -> “Connection” button). If you do not use proxy just uncheck “Connect using proxy”.or improper plug-in. or several plug-ins. they don’t like to be installed together.
In any case reinstall of AIM must help.Quote:quote:Originally posted by plastidcellsme personally I don’t like the newest version of AIM. There’s spyware (Wildtangent) and it jsut seems like a whole bunch of junk
In latest AIM 5.5.3595 you can disable installation of WildTangent Games and WeatherBug. And AIM becomes free from spyware.

They are hosted by and funded by SPAWNET.COM. Spawnet.com is a well known spyware affiliate and an illegal software distributor. It is known to be affiliated to LOP.com (a known spy-ware firm), C2media (yet another spyware firm).
Wow! Nice! By the way, where in whois written about funding of this project by SPAWNET.COM?
Such topic was started already at Palfun forum (http://palfun.com/forum/index.php?showtopic=15), but nothing except our hosting by spawnet.com was proved (by the way, this fact nobody is hiding).
If you do not want to answer on my forum, answer here on several questions:
1) Where is in whois report or in Palfun site written about project funding by any spyware affiliate?
2) Can you give me a link to any spyware detector (online or program), defining Palfun as spyware?
3) Can you show me any inbound or outgoing connections to your computer initiated by Palfun (except update requests)?
4) What kind of your private information (except IMs and chats – this is Palfun feature 🙂 ) is stored by Palfun at your computer?
5) You don’t like me or Palfun software? Because all your last postings only about spyware in my program.That’s all I want to know.
Quote:quote:Originally posted by yamonkey01kinda buggy… removing the bottom-most row of buttons on the buddy list messes up the AIM linking down there, and also “text/aolrtf; charset=”us-ascii” shows up in your profile. i’m not sure if it’s just the palfun user seeing it, or everyone.
Thank you for your opinion and information about bugs. I am working to fix it.
P.S. If you do not want to wex AIMutation fans, you can use Palfun’s forum http://palfun.com/forum
Quote:quote:Originally posted by Shizna69In my vocabulary, AIM Plus was synonomous with spyware. I never got AIM Plus to work for me. Those that did had problems. Is this compatible with AIM 5.5? It says with the latest version, but under system req. I see AIM 5.2…what’s the deal?
Edit: Well now that I tried to install it wants the older version of 5.5 before the revised it. Again, that isn’t the latest: what’s the deal?
1. Information at download page of site contains minimal requirements.
2. Working with latest AIM 5.5.3583 was fixed just now. You can update or download it again.Which addon to use it is your own opinion.
By the way, what BMP file it is requred? Maybe you were trying to use non Palfun skins?Sorry, I had not enough time to visit forums before, but now I can answer some your old/new question about AIM-Plus & Palfun.
1. This program is a rip of AIMutation!
If you say this, please provide more information, not only “I haven’t seen this program before release of AIMutation source code!”. The skin engine (main reason of this rumors) is NOT based on AIMutation skins, and NO AImutation code is used to develop this project. By the way, public release of AIMutation source code was on Feb-6 and AIM-Plus 6.2 (this is not first release, first release with skinning was made in December 2003) was released Feb-10. Do you think we have enough time to steal/modify/rip/rebuild AIMutation source code and add several our own original features?2. Why I haven’t heard about this program before?
We don’t want to do this like Fixer with Otsego (do you remember this unreleased program?). We do not promise anything, just do what we can. Program was developed, but not enough time was spent for promoting. Even now, I’ve just placed some information about this program at some AIM sites. But if you were interesting of this project some times ago, you could find link to this site from search engines even from 2003. Times ago this was only small project for de-adding and some customizing AIM, which has no own site and hasn’t even own name.3. AIM-Plus sounds like AIM+!
That’s why we are called now Palfun 🙂If you still have any questions – I would like to answer them here or at palfun’s forum (http://palfun.com/forum/)
2Someguy:
Sorry, my mistake. I’ve said “ban”, but really AIM server disallows you to format screen name for short time. And animation became useless – you can make only several screen name formattings and must wait some minutes to continue. I think, this is not interesting.
