With regular AIM? No.

I use DeadAIM (its an add-on), and it keeps logs of all my convos.

Gah! Not DeadAIM! I made the mistake of buying that. NO real customer support, and not all of the feature of the free AIMutation. AIMutation is the way to go, with real-time logging.

I know, never said you did, said I did. Hate it so much it&#39;s not even worth pirating. AIMutation all the way&#33; Gotta love the skinning, too&#33;

sparsely likes GAIM.
but I doubt you can retrieve chat logs if you didn&#39;t save them locally...

I would give AIMutation a shot, but I set up all my buddy aliases, and I don&#39;t want to do them all over. :(

There&#39;s a DeadAIM Alias to AIMutation converter on the AIMutation website. You just need to use DeadAIM to save your aliases to a file first. If you have an older version that can&#39;t do it, they&#39;re stored in the registry somewhere. Export them, and then import them into the appropriate AIMutation folder in the registry. Takes a little searching, but I found it when I had to do a long time ago.

Hmm.. in order to run the DeadAIM Alias to AIMutation converter, I&#39;ll need to download Microsoft .Net Framework, which is 23.6MB, and I&#39;m on dial-up. :frusty:

Owch. You could do it manually via the registry like I did...

Well, just made the switch, with the registry and everything.

Good: Almost everything, it&#39;s better than DeadAIM I&#39;d hate to admit. :lol:
Bad: No cloning, and the popup notifications have some weird icons in them. :huh:

EDIT: Ok, it has that, but the cloned AIM always crashes so... yeah. :blink:
2nd EDIT: Screw it, back to DeadAIM for me. :lol:

I&#39;ve never had it crash on me while cloning, ever. Oh well, to each his own, I suppose.
