Big-O Software

when ever i view my friends profiles, i click just about anywhere and aim auto exits...what is going on?

i click on a hyperlink in a profile, it exits.
i try to click and drag the scroll bar, it exits...its pissing me off

What version of AIM are you using? AIM+ is not yet fully compatible with the AIM 5 series.

Thats the same problem I am seeing on mine.

AIM version 4.8.2790

why is it that aim was crashing earlier today when your servers were down? what was trying to be accessed on the server that woul tottaly kill our client?

Yea, I'm having the same problem. Very werid, I'm on Xp running the latest version of aim+ with aim 4.8.2790. I just installed both today, and was working fine til I rebooted. Now, aim will exit if i open someones info and click anywhere in it. I was having this problem with this before, and had downgraded to some really old aim version, this fixed the problem, but the older aim was kinda glitchy. (ie.. the conversation window scrolls up occasionally, kinda annoying)

why is everybody having this problem all of a sudden??? i dont think i saw any posts about this prob before. whats goin on? i havent experienced this prob yet, but should i expect it?

Plasma2k2b: I haven't a clue, really. A lot of people do not seem to be having this problem (myself and Mark included), but it does seem that many are. Why it would pop up so suddenly, I'm not sure -- things that come to mind are: a particular version of AIM? (when did that final 4.8 release come out...) the last month has seen a lot of website downtime/changes, but I can't yet see how that would be related to this problem..

hallelujah (sp?)
i downgraded to aim 4.8.2781 and after a reboot, everything seems to be in order.

i have never heard of this problem before and no one has posted about it for a few days, maybe its fixed?

i am using version 4.8.2790
Windows Xp Home
with Service Pack 1 (this problem occured even before installing the SP)
and it still is doing it...

beginning to happen to me now as well. tested it several times.
Win2k Pro
AIM+ 2.2.1
AIM 4.8.2790

just did a little testing of my own. AIM+ has nothing to do with it. its an AIM problem. i loaded up aim, opened a profile, and clicked in it, and boom, aim shutdown.
so the AIM+ guys dont have to go searching for what in AIM+ could be causing this, because its not AIM+ at all ^^:;;

best solution ive found, download 4.8.2790 again from aim.com (its at the bottom. says Windows 98 users download 4.8 here), and reinstall. it fixed the problem for me.

WhiteWolf: Thanks!
