In short, YES. To use any messenger or any other internet program, you must be online first. It's like a telephone call made by a computer, you can't talk to anyone unless you first pick up the phone. BUT !!! You do NOT have to use AOL to use AIM!
Might I also suggest Yahoo! Messenger? I also know how to block the ads at the bottom of the chatrooms SHH!! Just ask. :)

Well, yes. You don't have to have a browser open, but you need an internet connection of some kind.

No you don't technically, but you can't chat or do anything it just opens and tells you that it can't sign on for you
