Hi Steve, First, glad to hear you've fared better with the app than Chris (smile). I believe the error will only occur if you have IE9 or later installed. AIM uses the IE engine to display html content including the conversation history. Apparently the way I was accessing the history was triggering one of IE9's enhanced security procedures due to cross site scripting vulnerabilities. Basically it thought my app was a malicious script and so it was blocking the app from functioning properly. It still baffles me why this was not an issue with IE8, since cross site scripting is really not a new concept. But despite my research and some messages to gw-scripting on the subject, I never got a great explanation. Thus, I had to change my approach for reading the conversation history.
So, if you have IE9 and the app has been working for you all this time then count your blessings (smile). But I'd be willing to bet that you haven't had these problems because you're still running IE8.

Chris, what version of AIM are you running, so I know what not to get? <smile> Best regards, Steve Jacobson On Sat, 24 Sep 2011 09:05:36 -0400, Cory Samaha wrote: >FYI, I just submitted an update to the AIM app which fixes the below error. >I really haven't had the time to devote as much attention to this app >as I would like, so Steve's comments are right on target.
