    I'm sure it must be a setting or something somewhere but whenever I start the default Linpus IM it opens a new browser window and goes to AOL.com, I believe this has been happening for about a week or so now does anybody know why this is happening and how to fix it as it is extremely annoying. (What's weirder yet is it's doing the same thing on my Vista PC running Trillian) TIA

    This seems to be an added "feature" since the recent update of the communications suite. Most messenger clients that support AOL IM seem to have the option to switch this off in your settings but I haven't found it in the Acer Messenger settings.
