Hey Harry and all
That's what one would think, but I talked to my brother about it today and
he says that my friend and his mom can certainly be on his screen name at
the same time and not know it. My bro says I have to be a detective to see
which computer my screen name is showing me is on AIM. Looking at the
online time and if the screen name is idle is one way to tell. My friend
tends to leave his sn on all the time, as many people of our age group do.
His mom, of course, wouldn't do that cause she doesn't really need to.
Also, if the profiles look different, that could also help.

I'm going to say no because the computer would see that you're already signe
in on another computer.

Hi guys
This question is to anybody who uses AIM, no matter what version. I have a
deaf-blind friend who is away at a program similar to LCB, but for
deaf-blind
people. He uses AIM there. To confuse things just a little, his screen
name is
also set to sign on automatically on the computer he and his parents use at
their house. Is it possible for my friend to be on AIM but idle and his mom
to
be using the computer at the house with his screen name on it at the same
time?
If yes, is there a way to know when Mom has signed off AIM and if the screen
name is truely "available" or idle?
Thanks,
Serena
