I am using a instant messaging program called toccer for my palm treo

680. Every time i am signed on to it i receive a message from AOL

System Msg saying "Your AOL screen name (Screenname) is now signed

into AOL® Instant Messenger in 2 locations. Click here for more

information." It pops up every 10 minutes and is very annoying. Does

anyone have a solution. Thanks.

Are you signed into AOL or AIM with your computer also?

 

If you haven't logged out of AIM or AOL on your computer, and you log on with your

Palm Treo, you are indeed logged on in two locations, as the message states. Toccer

is an AIM client.

What does this have to do with the XP OS?

No i am not signed in any where else besides toccer. I've had this

problem for over 2 weeks.

I can't seem to solve it.

What happens if you BLOCK that account from IM'ing you?

DLinares,

 

For me, you have AOL open & one of the settings is to automatically sign in to

AIM. In the main AOL you have settings to remove it

 

You can use the Auto Dialer option instead of the crappy AOL browser sign in.

That will also stop the AIM login too & you can use IE instead

 

If you have the Netgear Wireless Router then type in your username/password & do

away with the AOL software completely. You can then configure AOL Mail through

Outlook Express instead:

I don't use AOL on my computer. I use trillian. And what is Auto

Dialer option?

Do you have Trillian set to start with Windows?

If you do, you may be logged onto your AIM account without realising it.

No I actually removed trillian from the msconfig list by regedt.

Thanks though. Nothing runs on my computer when my treo is on. My

computer is usually off and i know nothing is running when its on

because i check the task manager process list. Nothing like trillian

or AOL service is running. Could it be because toccer is a third party

program and it does reconnect me automatically and that delay could

cause toccer to think that i was logged on twice. Just a thought.

I also use Trillian, on my desktop computer.....the free version 3.1 Basic. I

recall getting the same message periodically before I upgraded to version 3.x of

Trillian. Your idea may very well be what is happening.

 

What version of Trillian are you using?

I am using Trillian Pro 3.1

I don't believe the version of my messenger will affect toccer on my

treo. This is a very frustrating problem. :(
