I honestly don't know, but try right clicking AIM from the system tray and see if any options come up.

Hmm, while we're on the topic of aim, how do you remove someone from your list? I have some dead names I want rid of...

Tab over to edit buddy settings or whatever it is form the main buddy list window

Megan, I don't know how to go invisible, I want to and I have a friend who knwos how. She's sighted, but said she'll try to teach me. I hope it doesn't involve too many mouse movements. Once I get it figureed out I will post on here. As for removign buddies you can go to My AIM by pressing Alt or by clicking on it with your mouse pointer, then going to BuddyList Setup, then finding the buddy you want, right clicking it to get tot eh context menu and then selecting delete. Hope this helps, this is how it works with Window-Eyes and with m current version of AIM.

Alternatively, you can hit alt-s to go directly to buddy list setup, and then arrow through the tree view to the name you want to delete, and going to the context menu. There is also a delete button when you tab around the dialogue, but depending on what version of AIM you have, the buttons in the dialogue may not speak correctly.
