Okay guys try this, go to aol.com and sign into your e-mail with your screen name. After you signed in scroll down and there should be a box with a bunch of apps, one of them AIM. Click on that and it will show what friends are online and you can IM them. Also magg, that link you gave isn't working for me in chrome.

Please scratch that, last night when I tried using it just said "page unavailable" but now it works. I don't know what happened, but don't worry about it.
