Kill (Netscape's) AOL Instant Messenger
By: Arie SlobHere's how to kill (Netscape's) AOL Instant Messenger:
First see if it's listed in Start > Settings > Control Panel > Add/Remove Programs > AOL Instant Messenger, if so you can remove it from there.
We have had several reports however that AOL Instant Messenger was not listed in the Add/Remove Programs. Here's how to proceed:
- Go to \Program Files\Netscape\Communicator\Program\AIM
- Double click on aim.exe to start the program
- Click the Setup button, and choose the Misc. tab
- Uncheck Start Netscape AIM when Windows starts
- Click OK and close AOL Instant Messenger forever
Note: The entire AIM directory can be deleted if so desired
