stupid AIM

[GonzoStyle]

I upgrade my aim today and now I cant sign onto AIM at all. Everytime I try it says AIM service can't be reached. I try to auto-configure my connection and it says it cant find an internet connection, wtf!!!!!

every upgrade i get, the slower shit gets

thanks for the help.

if you installed Deadaim, esp a cracked version, you'll probably have to uninstall it to get AIM to work - and then you'll have to find a newer (and cracked if you dont wanna pay for it) version of Deadaim, assuming it's out. If it's not, it will be eventually.

That's why I usually wait for the new Deadaim before I upgrade AIM.

[GonzoStyle]

I've never used deadaim nor downloaded it, I am talking about just regular aim.

It just doesnt seem to be able to find my internet connection no matter what I do.

I thought you had deadaim - sorry!!

try uninstalling AIM totally, then rebooting - if it wad AIM, you should be able to connect.

And how are you posting here if you can't connect!???

happens to me all the time, i have to try reconnecting several times until i can get on.

I believe Gonzo is saying that AIM can't connect once he's already online, goat.

Don't uninstall it. Just try restarting. Sometimes it fixes things.

[Goatweed]

oh.

well then, just keep tryin' to connect. you'll get it eventually.

And wear a silly hat while you do it. That way when nothing works, you can still be all like... "Damn! ...at least I've got my silly hat."

I have no problem getting online, thats my point. I am online but aim says it cant find any internet connection, I have cable so I am always online.

I have rebooted, reinstalled, reinstalled different versions of aim, rebooted again and tried it all a dozen times. Its not simply like keyser put it that it takes several times to sign on, I have been trying to sign on for almost 4 days now and the dialouge box wont get past the connection stage, then when I try to auto configure my connection in the set up screen it says no internet connection found.

I try e-mailing the geniuses at OOL and they send me back a retarded email and say I should call AOL, AOL says I should ask OOL.
