Problem with AIM

Alright so my computer was just recently fixed because it wasn't working properly, but now it works pretty well. But i tried to download aim and it all worked until i tried to send an im. Everytime i do or i recieve one, it gives me the same long message. It keeps on saying something about copyright and confidentiality, well that looks like the title. And under that is just alot of random letters and signs, it sort of looks like a code you would use to put things on a website or something. Can someone please help me out?

the message looks something like this:

And was the reason you had to have your computer fixed due to a hardware problem or did you have virus/malware issues you had to have resolved?

The word "link" is a hyperlink to the page but for the sake of simplicity I'll just repost it the long way.
