When my friend is on AIM a message coms up saying

[cheater87]

internet Explorer - This page has an unspecified potential security risk. Would you like to continue? What could be causing this???

I'm using 5.9 (classic version). Does this (message above that cheater wrote) mean that I'm at risk? I thought AIM is supposed to be safe. That thing pops up when I'm signed on AIM at times.

the adverts in that version of aim are using unsafe activex. there is two ways around it. option 1 is the safe option. option 2 is very very unsafe.
1. update AIM to lastest version.
2. allow all activex

I surgest option 1.
