AIM Servers are Down

We’ve gotten reports of people being unable to connect to AIM and ICQ. The official client yields the same results - their servers are down but only for certain accounts. We are having trouble logging into AIM Mail on those same accounts. We will keep you posted here.

Update:

We just pushed a small update for a bug we introduced so the new revision is r13047. AIM servers are still down but we will update you as soon as we know more.

Update 2:

AIM/ICQ servers appear to be back to normal

    Note to self: Don’t do updates right before a service breaks.

    AIM/ICQ service seems to be back up now. At least for me.

    I just tried to instal the latest update and get the following:

    The application failed to initialize properly (0xc0000005). Click on OK to terminate the application.

    Does the SMS feature only work in the U.S.?
    Here in the UK it doesn’t work.

    I’d really like an option NOT to show an X on a tabbed IM window on each tab. I’d like to just be able to middle-click a tab to close it, without having to block off half the name when I hover over it. I have to work my way around the X if I want to bring the tab to the front, and it would be easier if there wasn’t one there in the first place and I had another way to close it.

    I don’t know how hard it will be, but I’d also love to see direct connections for AIM worked in and maybe some kind of IRC functionality. Great program, great build. Keep up the excellent work!

    gamerjcwear-

    The SMS features are service-specific. I believe most IM services have limits on what countries can be texted to/from. For details you’d have to check out the page about mobile support for whichever service you’re trying to message from.
