[Ti] AOL AIM and iChat

[Ted Johansson]

It works for me using AIM screenname, Mac/iChat on my side and XP/AIM 
on my friends side. It seems that it more often fails to open up the 
connection when sending the request from the XP than from the mac.

There are some "gotchas":
- AIM patch is needed for the PC to connect with video. 
http://aimtoday.aol.com/features/main_redesign.adp?fid=video_im and 
then the FAQ, "Why Am I Having Problems Getting Video IM to Work on My 
Computer?" and under point 2, there is a "Click here" to download the 
patch.
- Sound only ("Talk") does not connect between PC and Mac.
- Firewalls: open up the correct ports may be part of trouble 
connecting.
