As if there weren't enough already.
So I installed the latest upgrade to AOL Instant Messenger the other day. Now, I'm no naif here. I've done this enough times to know that, after an AIM upgrade, you have to go back into your preferences and manually set them back to what they were before the upgrade or else you're going to get the damn AIM Today window popping up every time you sign on.
So, the upgrade done, I went into my preferences and turned off the AIM Today popup. Then I restarted AIM.
AIM Today popped up.
Okay, I thought. I did something wrong. I went back into my preferences and turned off the AIM Today popup. Then I restarted AIM.
AIM Today popped up.
I repeated the experiment enough times to verify that, indeed, the way you set the preference has nothing to do with the behavior the app exhibits. AIM Today pops up whether I want it to or not. It's enough to make me switch to another instant messenger. Anyone have any suggestions?
(I'm observing this behavior in AIM 5.9.3861, btw.)
