Is AOL instant messenger now called Triton?

[techs]

I didn't see an AIM download at AOL. It looked like you needed to download Trition to get it. Does anyone know if this is the case?
Also, does the AOL Browser come with it?
thanks

Trtiton is a product of AIM. They are part of AOL.

AIM

Open AOL and in the Keyword selector, put AIM Triton.

I don't have aol so I can't use keywords.
So is triton a part of aim? Does it replace aim? Does anyone know?

If you don't care for the new version, there is always Oldversion.com.
My roommate has Triton, and to quote him, "My god I hate Triton."

Every time someone downloads AIM Triton, God kills a kitten.
Please use www.oldversion.com
Thank You.

To answer your question, Triton is simply the newest version of AIM. As was stated - use the old version. Triton sucks. In fact, IMHO, all instant messaging sucks.

Tirtron does blow, it takes up unnecesary memory and even the AOL browser takes up more memory aswell. After i dloaded it i deleted it and reverted back to the lastest aim before it.

So if you install Triton you get the AOL Browser automatically?

Yes, in the new beta however they added a removal tool for it.

Im running GAIM beta 2.

They finally added a removal tool for that? that was my big issue with AIM Triton, any link that anyone sent me I had to use AOL's browser. I wish they had a logger.
