Aim

My problem is when I am using AIM and I want to change my buddy icon IE crashes. When I go to another website and click on the icon I want it crashes. This may not sound like a huge problem(which it is'nt) but its gettin me frustrated.

So dont change the Icon. (Humor)

This is more of a software or orperating system issue. You might try the windows forum that is appropriate.

Try saving the icon, then using it manually through the AIM interface. That's not going to solve your problem, but it's a way to get around it.

I don't think the program itself has any spyware but a lot of their plug-ins do. Aim Expressions and Wild Tangent (their games) are riddled with spyware.
