DeadAIM 3.0 Released


Recommended Posts

A new version of DeadAIM was released. Below is from the changelog:

The following new features were added:

-Logging - The ability to search by screen names and dates.

-Logging - Log files can be easily saved to another location.

-Logging - Inline images and files are logged.

-Logging - Time stamps are always shown.

-Logging - Text background is shown correctly.

-Logging - The Log Manager now remembers its window size and position.

-Grouping of instant message windows into one tabbed window.

-Cloning; the ability to have more than one AIM client running simultaneously (NT4/2000/XP and higher only).

-DeadAIM can now add a link to its website in your profile so others viewing your information can find out about it.

-DeadAIM group in the start menu that contains a link to the Log Manager.

-"Repair DeadAIM" shortcut in the DeadAIM group that will re-associate DeadAIM with AIM after an upgrade.

-A very small lightweight program is run on system start up to check DeadAIM is associated with AIM correctly.

The following bugs were fixed:

-Logging - Date format in the log manager had an errenous '[' in some locales.

-Logging - If a picture or other binary file was inserted no more conversations were logged that day for that person.

-Logging - If Windows was shutdown or if the user logged off without first closing the IM windows then the conversations would not be saved.

-Logging - Logging could not be disabled.

-Transparency - Docking and undocking the AIM window removed transparency.

-Transparency - Clicking on the area around or using the keys to manipulate the slide control did not work correctly.

-Dependencies on new DLLs caused 2.06 not run on Windows NT 4.0 unless the IE desktop enhancement was installed.

-The installer did not prompt the user to close AIM before installing. This lead to a lot of people thinking DeadAIM did nothing as they hadn't restarted AIM.

-When Apache running on jdennis.net did not respond in a timely fashion after the connection of a socket DeadAIM would crash.

-DeadAIM would not work after upgrading AIM when using AIM's built in upgrade functionality.

-On Windows 9x platforms the user would be prompted to report their installation everytime AIM was loaded until they clicked "no".

Notes for release:

DeadAIM will now automatically check for a new version once every 24 hours instead of every sign-on. Manual checking for a new version is not effected by this change.

deadAIM had, as of now, more features than AIM+ and the tabbed IM's is what people have been waiting for for a long time and now the support for cloning brings it up to and beyond AIM++.

thats. the reason i didn't want to switch from AIM+ to deadAIM was because, at the time, there was no logging feature. but once jdennis incorporated it. i immediately switched over, and have been very satisfied with it. AIM+ was too bulky for me (having to use a seperate application).

though i look forward to seeing what this new AIM+ 3.0 has to offer.

btw, where was this information about released AIM+ 3.0 on wednesday, learned from? i didn't see anything on the big-o-software website about it.

Just downloaded this and it worx great, no more need for my tabbed im window patch hahaa, Finally jdennis updated his site too looks much more better and I like the forum he put there too. This one is gonna be a tough one for big-o to beat, guess we will have to see which one is better tomorrow.

    • Anthropic pulls Fable 5 and Mythos 5 after US export control order by Pradeep Viswanathan In April this year, Anthropic launched the Claude Mythos Preview frontier model with state-of-the-art cyber and coding capabilities for a select set of companies around the world. After preparing appropriate guardrails, early this week, Anthropic launched Claude Fable 5 and Mythos 5, its most capable AI models. Claude Fable 5 is for general users and comes with strict safeguards, while Mythos 5 is designed with fewer safeguards for cybersecurity and biology use cases. Today, Anthropic abruptly suspended access to its Fable 5 and Mythos 5 AI models for all customers after receiving an export control directive from the US government. The company received the directive from the government today at 5:21 p.m. ET, and the received letter did not provide any details regarding the national security concern. Anthropic understands that the government became aware of a method to bypass, or “jailbreak,” Fable 5, which might be the reason behind the directive. The order was issued under national security authorities and requires the company to suspend all access to Fable 5 and Mythos 5 by any foreign national, whether they are inside or outside the United States. The restriction also applies to foreign national employees working at Anthropic. As a result, the company has disabled both models for all customers to ensure compliance. Access to previous Anthropic models like Opus and Sonnet is not affected by this government order. The company highlighted that it had developed strong safeguards to reduce the possibility that Fable is misused for tasks related to cybersecurity. In fact, many developers are complaining that the safeguards are going overboard. Additionally, the company worked with the US government, the UK AISI, multiple private third-party organizations, and internal teams to red-team Fable’s safeguards for thousands of hours. Finally, Anthropic noted that no testers have yet been able to find a universal jailbreak on Fable 5. As expected, Anthropic disagrees that a narrow potential jailbreak should lead to the recall of a commercial model used by hundreds of millions of people. It warned that applying this standard across the AI industry could effectively halt new frontier model deployments. Anthropic concluded by mentioning that it is working to restore access to Fable 5 and Mythos 5 as soon as possible and plans to share more details within the next 24 hours.
