Know E's is on a distinguished road (10)
Stupid question from a newbie!??

Sorry for asking this, but I just signed up for DSL that comes with MSN Premium. My 13 year old daughter is convinced that AIM will not work using MSN's service. I need to know if AIM will still work. I realize that MSN's IM won't work with AIM, but that isn't what we want to do. Am I not understanding something? We currently use Juno Platinum, but I was planning on cancelling that when I activate the MSN account. Can someone assure me that she will still be able to use AIM? Thank you, and I realize that this might not be the proper place to ask this "basic" (stupid) question, but I haven't been able to find the answer for her. She would rather keep our extremely slow dial-up than switch to DSL and possibly lose her ability to use AIM. Thanks again.

I don't see any reason why it shouldnt. The MSN service is just the internet connection. The instant messengers are just programs that connect through your internet connection. There shouldnt be any conflict.

welcome to BBB!

As I was going down the stair, I met a man who wasn't there.
He wasn't there again today; I wish I wish he'd go away.
