Clicking X actually exits program

Hey guys. First off, great work.

My one gripe with AIM is that clicking X doesn't exit the program, it just makes it minimize to the system tray.

Can you fix that? Maybe put in an option that will fix it? Or at the very least put in a hotkey (CTRL-Q, for example) that will sign off and kill the program?

Thanks,
Jeff

and make a check next to "Sign off when Buddy List window is closed"

Yeah, I've got that.

But I want the whole program to quit. I don't want it to be running at all.
In other words, I don't even want the yellow guy in my system tray.

And of course i step in to save the day again.. lol

there IS a hot-key for wat you wanna do... ya know how you can close windows by pressing Alt-F4... well, you can close AND exit AIM (completley) by pressing Ctrl-Shift-F4 all at the same time.... not ALT

all i do is right click the icon in the system tray and go to exit. i don't even bother signing off first.

right clicking and exiting does the exact same thing as if you just press Ctrl + Shift + F4
