Stop AOL Instant Messenger from autoloading when viewing threads??

Hi, I am having a problem. AIM opens every time a visitor loads a thread (unless it is already running). I didn't realise this because I usualy have my AIM on, but recently I was receiving some complaints that it was loading on each threadview if it wasn't currently running. I exited my AIM and went t view a thread and sure enough, the "Now Connecting" window popped up and connected me to AIM... Has anybody ever heard of this problem???? What would cause this???

Please somebody tell me how to disable this, or fix it somehow. Thanks.

I'll say the same thing that I said in the other thread:

it's due to my hack, it was organlly so'pose to open MSN if you exit out of it (just like if you go to hotmail to check your e-mail and you see that MSN messenger open right up by your system clock) but since the release of MSN 5, I guess it went to the next best thing which was AIM

I'm still looking for a sloution for how to make it stop loading AIM and load MSN instead, so untell then, you can stop AIM/MSN from loading by removing the following the showthread template and from the getinfo template (yes, it's over there also ):

	<object classid="clsid:FB7199AB-79BF-11d2-8D94-0000F875C541" codeType="application/x-oleobject" id="MsgrApp" width="0" height="0"></object>
	<object classid="clsid:F3A614DC-ABE0-11d2-A441-00C04F795683" codetype="application/x-oleobject" id="MsgrObj" width="0" height="0" codebase="#Version=2,0,0,83"></object>

it should be after $footer
