Hey all,
I'm having trouble with aim, I have the new version of aim, 6.5 or something and well for some reason two of my buddy's don't show up as online, I don't have them blocked and they don't have me blocked either, We don't show up on each other lists for some reason. I've tried deleting them and re adding them, but no luck. Any help solving this mystery would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks,
Kat

I believe my brother had the same problem. I don't know if it's a bug in aim but it was version 6.1 when it happened to him. He tried creating a new sn because of it and crashed my sister's computer. She lost everything but after installing aim again, his buddies showed up. lol My sister was quite upset. I was wondering if when using aim while winam is on, does aim kick you off sometimes? I had to downgrade from 6.5 because I kept getting kicked off whenever I was in the winamp window and someone IMed me. lol I wish you the best of luck in getting aim to work for you.

I'm also having some issues and have been meaning to post here. Sometimes when I sign in, jaws doesn't read the contacts or anything unless I restart it. After that it reads it fine.
