So does anyone have any ideas about how to make AIM (the official version) log conversations? I’m sure it’s possible. It’s built into it already, it’s just a matter of enabling it. Any tips?
You need to go to file open in Resource Hacker and open aimres.dll, it should be in C:Program FilesAIM or C:Program FilesAIM95 or wherever you installed AIM. Then just do a search for ad (using CTRL-F, the find feature), until you find the line of code I showed you.
I have a way to remove the buddy list ads. It involves editing aimres.dll. You need to get a program called Resource Hacker. You need to be sure to make a backup copy of aimres.dll in case you screw it up. Then you need to do a search for ad. It will take several finds to find it. You’ll know when you find it because it will say this:
CONTROL “93142556”, 134, “_AimAd”, 0x50002680, 57, 15, 80, 37 , 0x00010000
CONTROL “ATE”, 148, “WndAte32Class”, 0x40000000, 57, 15, 80, 37Remove that from the file. Click compile, then click file->save and your done. Oh yeah, be sure to exit AIM before messing with this. No more buddy list ads. And yes, it does merge the buddy list.
