Ok my 9 yo daughter has been asking me and asking me to load AOL IM or AIM onto our laptop at home. Apparently picking up the phone and calling her friend that lives 3 miles away isn't good enough she needs to IM her. I guess if you have daughters you'd understand.
Anyway here is the deal:
1) I am not that great at computers and downloading stuff or uploading what ever its is.
2) I used to have AOL dial up. Ever stick a hot needle in your eyeball? I finally dumped AOL and got a new Dell Laptop and Dell Desk top a while ago. I now use Verizon DSL and I am very nervous about putting anything AOL back on my computer. I have heard it is like a bad rash and just wont go away.
So is it safe to load AIM on to my computer? Are there other Instant messangers that are better than AOLs that I can load?
Finally how would I do this?
Thanks so much.
