My AIM dropped out suddenly and I keep getting "service is temporarily unavailable" message. If I use my other screen name, I can log in fine. My primary name won't connect even using AIM Express.

Anyone experience this? What's the issue?

It does that to me. AOL has a bunch of servers, and your SN connects to one of them, so it could be that the server with one of your SNs is down or something. Maybe.

Reminds of the afternoon earlier this year when AIM practically shut down completely and there were like 50 thread about it. :D

Thats the message they put up while they install the logging device on your account. Be careful what you say.
