Aim 5.5.3595

Hi, I'rve recently run into a problem with my version of AIM 5.5.3595 that i use in conjunction with the Dead AIM plugin. Is anyone able to actually install this version on their installation of Windows XP SP3 without issues? I'll provide further details if anyone is able to assist.

Does AIM 5.5 even work anymore? I'd suggest updating AIM to 5.9 or one of the 6 builds.

Yes it still works, I was able to install it perfectly fine on my Vista machine. I'm wondering whether anyone else has trouble installing the same build on XP SP3?? The newer builds are bloated junk with ads and don't support Dead AIM.

Newer builds have something called AIM Ad Hack.

How about a polygamy feature?

Well, for AIM 6 there's something called AIM Simple Cloner which clones an AIM instance.

Hrmm. Sounds like I may just have to make the upgrade.
Does the newest build of aim use tabs and logging?

So I gave in and I've upgraded to AIM 6.9 with adhack, aim simple clone & nalsoft AIM log manager.

I used to use an application called AIM settings backup wizard. Doesn't seem to work with AIM 6 as it uses an entirely different directory to install. Any recommendations to transfer settings over from AIM 5.5.3595 to AIM 6.9?

Thanks
