as usual, waiting for AIM AD Hack. In my review of Triton, I recommend everyone use AD Hack. I love the software, but would never use the default installer. I think I read somewhere that MIcrosoft Antispyware gives something like 10 alerts during the installation using the official installer.

Umm ... I'm still experiencing the 'cant-logon-stuck-at-validating-screen' problem ...

We know...believe me the second I think I fixed it I will shout from the roof tops. If you are using a non-english language setting in the OS then we know that is the problem...if u are using English, and if you want to help me out, can you send me an ethereal trace of just the aim activity during your trace. If you need help setting that up or using ethereal ping me. I have only one person in the field contact me with this problem who was kind enough to give me a trace, and if I can get one or two more I would be confident in the problem I think I am seeing. Then its just a matter of trying to fix the culprit.

This release does have a dedicated systray, but right click away is still not there. It is coming soon, in fact I saw it tonight, and does look good. No eta yet, but it is definitely soon. Tooltips are better in Triton than AIM 5.9 IMO.

I had a hard time getting the 1st Triton Final to install. I don't think I want to have a headache installing the newest build. It doesn't remember my password, I installed it with out the ad hack, and Oh noz, complete system nightmare, ads galore. Unwanted explorer, and weather bug, Ha, who needs weather bug. Only AOL, can't wait till Microsoft buys them and shut them down. :whistle:

If you read the news, you'll see that buyout was a grossly exagerated rumor that isn't going to happen.

Much improved. (Y) Seems more stable and a bit quicker.

Still haven't found out how to use my own custom buddy icon though.

One workaround seems to be to install 5.9, set your icon through there and then use Triton. I have my icon set in 5.5 and it carries over to Triton.
