Okay. So I have this new job. So I download AIM so I can chat like normal. Due to me being on the web group, I get access outside the firewall.
So, I attempt to set up AIM. No dice. Anyone able to help me out at ALL? I know the proxy server, I know the port, but I type it in, hit connect, and nothing happens on SOCKS protocols. And HTTP protocal gets me an error message.
Weird thing is…I can use Yahoo messenger. Works just fine. But not AIM. Any techie types able to help me out? Please? I miss talking to everyone!
YM is web based, whereas ICQ and AIM are server based, I believe. I think AIM has an auto-set thing. Have you tried using that? It should search for the available servers.
Then again, I may be totally wrong. If nothing else, consider this a bump.
