Random internet disconnection.... macbook
Well before you ask... wireless internet (not PW protected), no firewalls... unless macs have one that comes default. This is my friends computer just trying to do her a favor.... i don't use macs, haha
The reason i know it disconnects is because the AIM keeps disconnecting and reconnecting... Any ideas?

What kind of wireless router, where is it located in relation to her, is it hers, why isn't it secured, what version of OSX?
Macbooks do not respond well to older wireless G routers. You also need a quality router that doesn't have an abnormal amount of packet loss.
