Looking for a good, free AIM Logger

[dmurray14]

My little brother (9 yr old) somehow got into the whole AIM thing. I think it's cool that he has it all figured out and all, but I think it might be a good idea to just keep logs of who he's talking to and occasionally skim them over to make sure nothing fishy is going on. Could anybody recommend a good, free conversation logger for AIM?

Thanks,
Dan

DeadAIM does logging.

DA isn't free

Trillian does logging....I think.

yeah, it does...but i don't want to change the interface on him. I'll look at DeadAIM

AIM+ does logs, but it doesn't work with the newest versions of AIM.

myIM is a free plugin, but only works on AIM versions below 5. Look around for it.


BTW, this thread belongs to the Programming & Software Forum.

Oh my goodness! Finally a website for old stuff! And yeah, DA was free until the recent version, so I believe it is legit to use those.

It is legal because it's a previous version. Therefore you're entitled to whatever legalities were in-effect with that release.

gAIM has a Windows port and it rocks.

guys, i am trying deadaim for my solution but dead aim shows its self all around in aim.

also dead aim doesnt seem to log IMs when someone else starts the convo.



I need it to work almsot like a key logger, in that i need it to run transparently so that they user doesn't know she is running it.

I know you all hate giving out advice in a situation like this were it looks like i am trying to scam someone. I just need it to run transparently over AIM, ther can be another icon in the task bar, thats fine. just aim needs to look normal. it can't have all the deadAim stuf fin the menu's at least not as obviously.

"also dead aim doesnt seem to log IMs when someone else starts the convo."

Yes it does. As for being transparent. I don't know anything that will work except for a true keylogger. Then you are going to have to dig through a bunch of crap to get what you want to see.

i found instant messenger grabber, seems to be doing the trick. faily transparent, unfortunatly it runs as imgrabber.exe so it is easy to spot. hopefully nto for her though.
