How do you log on AIM with 2 accounts at the same time?

Question

Ok I want to log onto AIM with 2 accounts at the same time, how?

Answer 1

If you are using version 6.0 sign in with one name.
Then click on Edit - Settings (F7)

Then click on Buddy List tab. Under Link Screen Names click on Manage Linked Screen Names. New window opens up. Enter your other screen name. Then hit OK.

Log out, then log in and both s/ns should appear.

Answer 2

You have to link them. They keep moving it around when they upgrade but I think it's under one of the preferences menus now. It used to be it's own option. Once you link accounts, you have to exit out completely and then go back in for both to show up.
