    your not running kazaa lite are you? sometimes if i leae mine searching then each time the autosearch more kicks in the screen flickers, and games run really slow. that could be happening to you.

    other ideas are to run a virus scan, run a spyware scan, and reinstall aim.

    there is an option in the prefrences that if checked the buddy list will flash wen buddies sign on/off, make sure it is unchecked.

    Even though I've been using Trillian (I didn't want a program for every IM protocol) and haven't used AIM in a while, I seriously doubt it's a virus. It's more likely to be what was already said. Either a program running that's taking system resources or something in your preferences.
