Publisher's Description:

Use the Member Directory to locate friends by name or by e-mail address.

This is the most popular instant messenger amongst teenagers. Period. My nieces/nephews & all their friends use it constantly on their PCs and their phones to communicate. They don't understand or care about adware/spyware or have a clue about AOL's history of deceptive business practices.

I always carry a copy of Aim 6.0 Ad Hack 5.54 on my USB drive to remove the garbage that comes bundled with this malware but the noobs inevitably update AIM and the garbage is back. At least I get lots of free beer and dinner from all my relatives & their friends whenever I have get called to fix their kids' computers.

AIM is definitely the instant messenger of choice amongst teenagers or those with teenage mentality.

Aol is a joke form the tracking software so they can bombard you with ads and their constant attempt to block connections with other instant messangers says it all.

I have to say, I'm very impressed with the look. For once, they seem to have a user friendly simple product. But I haven't tried it, nor will I. I can't stand AOL as a company, they're a very bad company I just can't look myself in face knowing I contributed to them.

I am an ex-pidgin user. I love pidgin, but it is not secure. I went back to AOL IM and you know what? Its very good. It looks great, has tons of features...

The only negative is the ADs which i removed with "Aim Ad Hack".

If they remove the ADs its a 5, until then it stays at 4.

Its much more robust and full of features than pidgin.

The problem with TomA102210 is that he is lacking self-confidence and self-worth. This is more likely due to being made fun of as a child. What normal person in society would sit on betanews.com 24/7 just 2 write reviews especially a person that has no idea what he is talking about? We can definitely conclude he still lives with his mother; I'm guessing he’s around 40-50 years old. He needs to get a life or maybe a girlfriend.
