    AIM popups?

     
    Anyone else get popups when AIM is open? Is there anyway to block them or what older versions do not have this? Is there a place that has older versions? I says messenger service on the top bar of the pop up. Most of the time its university diplomas.

    That normally doesn't bother me, but sometimes it doesn't open until 10 minutes later... That's when it starts to annoy me.

    When are people going to start getting a clue?

    How many times does it have to be said, over and over, that this type of spam nothing to do with instant messaging programs?

    Do a google search on "messenger services" spam and you'll be able to fix it.

    Yes, but it doesn't say "Messenger Service" in the title bar, and the poster explicitly mentioned that.
