    My cousins Sz120 wont work when he is in AIM, but works when he uses MSN. On my laptop it works for both programs perfectly. Does anyone know what to do to fix it? I tried the video/audio tuning in the setup but that didnt work. If i connect with him, his laptop says there might may be something wrong with the firewall. I checked in Nortons and Windows firewall but they both allow the AIM program to work properly.


    Thanks

    Did you try with different users? Because some users might have some different versions running or using GAIM or something.

    If that doesnt work try Trition.

    Well it works now. Sony tech support said that the Nortons had to be deleted in order for it to run.
