I recently recieved from someone the AIM Invader and I really don't know how to get rid of it. Everytime i get on my screen name i get millions of messages from some sn and i can't do anything!

if you could justtell me if there is a way to delete it that'd be great

Um... AIM Invader is a program that does this - Not a program that makes you receive random IMs.

You could put your buddy list on the "Buddy List Only" setting. Then only people you have on your BL would be able to IM you.

your getting these 'spam' IM's because somebody is specifically sending them to you. They are watching for you when you sign on, then he/she is clicking a button to send them to you.

find out who is doing this, then stuff a pinapple up their ass

if I block this person that is sending them to me will it stop doing it?

No (Well he might, if he does not realize you are on).

no. I've used aim invader before..

if the person is IMing you with tons of names.. he/she has a lot of registered sreen names loaded into the program to "spam" you.

I've done it before

You'll have to block all the screen names their spamming you with.

That's what Anthony already said.

It a sense, it blocks everyone except for who is on your buddylist
