I've seen a few people who have these away messages that stay up even if they IM you. So basically you can talk to a few people, while seeming away to everyone...

It seems useful at times and thought it was acool idea and wanted to know what I need to DL to get it, or if it's a part of AOl (or I need a new AIM or somethin).

So if anyone knows what I'm talking about and can help, please do.

well i've always been able to do it because i'm on iChat with a mac...but i think for AIM you can just get the newest version and be able to do it...i think. most of my friends can do it now, so that wouldn't surprise me if thats how..just update your aim or delete it and download the newest version.

I know I have the latest version and it's on there. Put up an Away message. The bottom option you can check off is "Allow sending of messages." That'll let you IM while you're Away.
