AIM/mac.com
I really, really like Proteus, but I can't seem to get it to work over AIM with my mac.com account. It keeps saying "AOL has been disconnected," but never seems to connect! I've tried changing the host name to the one AIM uses (which works in AIM) with the same results. Can anyone use their mac.com account with this? BTW, my Yahoo and MSN accounts work fine on it, and AIM works fine in AIM, so it's not a firewall issue.

Seems a bunch more people are having problems with it as well

I suspect, that like most 3rd party AIM clients, Proteus uses the TOC protocol which is what AOL developed for their Java web client. It is my understanding (and I could be wrong), that using the mac.com username/password is restricted to the OSCAR protocol which the official AIM client uses, and is additionally only made possible by changes to the newest version of the official AIM client. |
