The software that AOL produces for AIM only works on a windows machine. I use a linux client from home, and untill recently I used a web based service at work.
I haven't used it in a couple of years, but I'm fairly sure that AIM Quick Buddy works in any Java-enabled browser. I might be misremembering, but I think I even used it on my SGI Indy back in the day.
Depending on how seriously they blocked the site you were using before, you might still be able to get there through a public proxy that isn't blocked.
No, I don't. Best to find one of the proxy lists on the web. A search like '"proxy list" elite anonymous' should get you started. They go up and down a lot, so there's a bit of work involved.
Another possibility is to run one on a box at home, and secure it properly. I'm blanking on the names of free proxies you can download, but they're out there.
