I'd use GAIM instead if it actually supported File transfers. I tested the recent Win32 build (1.0) and it still doesn't work correctly.

Like a lot of other people, I'm not happy about AOL putting all this trash like Viewpoint Viewer and WeatherBug into their IM client. Is there someone out there that has a prepackaged version of AIM that removes all that garbage or is there an easy way to install it without it? I've tried someone's earlier suggestion of removing the folder sysfiles and packaging in a silent RAR SFX file. What this does is cause rendering problems and in the newest AIM I get these 2 IE windows that popup that I can't find the option to prevent them. They are similar to AIM Today but even more useless. I've also tried that WinInstall program but that doesn't want to install for some reason. It gets stuck on the personal info page.

Is there anyone out there that has repackaged AIM? OR I'm interested in building an AIM install without all the fat. What files should I keep and registry keys?
