When I recieve a message on AIM, it doesn't flash. Help. What's wrong?

Question

Don't say "check one of the settings", what do you think? But if there's a setting I missed, then tell me but you have to tell me exactly where, 'cause I don't want to end up looking a million times ending up empty-handed.

Don't tell me to GOOGLE it. I mean.. WHERE DO YOU THINK I JUST CAME FROM?

I restarted AIM, my computer, I reinstalled AIM, i used different accounts, nothing worked.

So don't state the obvious of what I did that didn't help. Thx, hope you help. :)

If you have the latest AIM version (6.1), then you will need to go to Settings => General IM => check to see if the "Flash the window when IM messages are received" is checked, if it is, then you'll have the flashing going on, if not, then check it, and then apply/save.
