Hi, I use aim 6.0 and have been following the thread, and trying to find my own solutions to the problem (uninstalling, deleting registry values, running ad hack, etc.) Well, I signed on to a completely different computer onto my sn, and even there I can’t see buddy icons, aim smileys, and the aim “shower” smileys; it’s the same thing, there’s red X’s all over the place. Can somebody find a way to fix this problem???? It would be GREATLY appreciated.
