Oh, I've seen this AIM annoyance before. A good program that gets rid of many
AIM viruses is
http://www.jayloden.com/software.htm . It also gives links to
other programs that target specific spyware entities.
http://www.jayloden.com/VirusClean.htm is another link that explains how to
manually get rid of the most common AIM viruses, just incase the AIMfix tool
will not work. Hope this helps a bit more.
