AIM 7.1 Beta 3 is here! This beta improves the stability of AIM 7.1 and fixes several issues. As a reminder, AIM 7.1 adds the following features:

  • Ability to choose which services to push your AIM status.
  • Windows 7 improvements.
  • Improved upgrade mechanism.
  • A new look to notification “toasts” that appear in the lower right of your screen.

Totally new features, and an overhauled face. Overall, a nice upgrade.

No regrets.
