Lately, I've been noticing that people can personalize the notifications in AIM, and when a person comes "on" on AIM, a window pops up in my computer notifying me that the person signed on and a personalized sound (picked by that buddy) sounds. This sound also sounds when the person is idle, goes away, comes back from away, or signs off.
Is there a way to disable that sound in my AIM??? I don't mind the popup notifications, but the sounds have not been pleasant to my ear lately.
I don't have AIM installed now, but as far as I remember, there are 2 ways to change/disable sound notifications, either via preferences in AIM or by going to control panel > sound and audio devices > sounds > then locate the AIM section of the sounds, and either change or disable it.

That's it, I got it. It's through AIM Preferences=>Expressions. Ufff, I think these expressions should be baned!!!!! :party39:

FPA,
This does not kill the mail sound.
Here is how you you can do it:
F3 from AIM main window to get in to preferences then:
