AIM sucks
This is one really lousy piece of software. I wouldn't have it installed at all, except pidgin crashes when I try to open up an AIM chat room, and I felt compelled to gossip with my fellow MSOP players.

I think AIM chat rooms are supposed to work through Gmail Chat now.

Is Trillian an option for you? I haven't been on IM in a few years, but I remember Trillian working well for me.

On the Mac, Adium rocks as a chat client that can handle AIM, GTalk, Jabber, ICQ, et al.

On the PC, I used to use Trillian.

I know there's another one which is crossplatform which I can't remember now.

And AIM is accessible from within Gmail on the web nowadays.
