    Hey, what's up Apple folks? I remember reading about this somewhere I don't know if it was here or somewhere else, but have you guys heard about using AIM and then it just closing off like after 5 mins or something. It's weird, I know a few other ppl have the problem, do you guys know how to fix it?

    Thanks a bunch, take care..

    I would strongly recommend using Adium instead of the AOL AIM program or iChat. It has more features, looks nice and is more stable. You can find it at www.adiumx.com
