Hey guys. There is an improvement in JAWS 6.1 with AiM. It seems to be better at giving status messages when things happen. IE contact x is idle, contact x is typing a message, contact x is away, etc. However, when I arrow through my buddy list, it does not say if someone is away or idle, as 6.0 did, leaving me to send messages to people who have indicated they don't want to receive them. Anyone notice this, and is there a workaround? Thanks.

Hmmmm, might want to email freedomscientific about that so that they can fix it in the next build...

Why is it working for you and not for me? LOL I had different results from different bersions of AIM 5.5. So. there you go. I'll still mention it to them.

I checked it too myself, and it still tells me. You might've unintentionally messed something up.

it doesn't tell me who's away when arrowing through my buddy list either, it did with 6.0 but doesn't now with 6.1
