Wondering if anyone can help me on this one. Last week I installed AIM and it appeared to be working fine. Just a few days ago I've been having problems with it. :( unfortunately AIM shows people "offline" when actually these people are online. I can't message anyone because they are unavailable. They can message me successfully without any problems.....just surprises me cause of course they are showing they are offline. I've tried uninstalling the darn program and reinstalling it to no avail. wtbleep.

With Yahoo I can log in invisible and message people though they think I'm offline. Maybe the same is happening with AOL?

Thanks Herm, I'll give that a try. I don't think AIM has the "Invisible" option however maybe I just didn't look hard enough. Thanks for the response. If that dosen't work then I think I'll scrap that program all together!! :shock:

lotus look under your prefs on your buddy list

there is an option on there for your buddy list that says dim if buddy is on idle for 20 mins or whatever you set your mins to make sure that isn't checked

on mine i just have flash when buddy signs on and off

see if that helps
