          What I don't understand is ... why can't AOL AIM users decide on their own ?

          As I understand it AOL AIM have message logging on a central server etc. .....

            I had a feeling AOL was doing this. Had many problems connecting to AIM in the past few days. Strangely the ICQ portion of Trillian still works fine.

              Kosh you didn't hear about the AIM logging server being left open and thus all that was neccessary to DL the conversations was to enter in both parties nicks? This happened just two weeks ago... something like 5 terabytes of communications were open to the public!

              There was a big whoop ty do about this cause apperantely several top ranking US Goverment officials conversations were DL'd!

                    When my bro was doing tech support for DSL a lady called up saying she couldn't get any network stuff to work. Apparently her TCP/IP stack was changed and then corrupted because of an AOL install.

                      Yes, AOL installs their own TCP/IP stack. It doesn't uninstall when you uninstall AOL. I've seen no easy way to remove it, and I've had to tell a couple people to remove Windows and reinstall, and never ever put an AOL CD in again.
