I STILL do not understand how the ONE ad keeps you from using the product? Can you IM yes. Can you voice, yes. Can you send files, yes. Can you do everything that AIM has been built to do with ONE ad, YES.. Jeez..

After having some trouble with Trillian, I moved back to the AIM client and found much that I now liked. For those who dislike the ads or the icons, there is an EXTREMELY easy way to remove/change them. Icon files can all be replaced, as they are standard PNG files. Eliminating the ads involves changing a few lines in a text file, as explained here:

Most people have moved on from this and I feel the improvements that AOL have made are too little too late. I am communicating far less on AIM then Gmail Chat and Skype and I havent actually used an official client aside from testing for years. I see aim going where yahoo has gone. Its a shame they put out such a junk product for so long, maybe if this version would have replaced 5 then I may not have stopped using it. Frankly there is nothing special nor has their ever been anything special about aim aside from its large userbase. You can talk to AIM users from within Gmail now so really I see no need to waste the download. Skype is far better for voice or video and this thing is just bundled with way too much junk to make it appealing other than for its eye candy. if you are going to use this I would recommend aim ad hack because it makes it much more pleasant.

This is far from a dinosaur app. AIM has come along way from its 5.9 days. Triton was crap. But triton is no more. AIM is NOT BLOATED, NOT SLOW, NOT ANCIENT. And if the one ad stops you from iming people please tell everyone how. I would especially like to know.
