 Replying to [comment:6 cryingnoise]:
 > I'm still having trouble with this. Whenever I get disconnected from AIM
 [happens from time to time], I cannot log back on and I get the same error
 message. Except now, the only way I can log back on is to disable Norton
 Internet Security [what I actually have is Symantec Client Firewall, but
 I'm sure they're the same] and log on, then enable it again. So it must be
 a problem with that. I'm not sure how to fix it. I don't want to have to
 disable and enable every time I have to log on, and I'd rather not get rid
 of the client firewall.

 You can try to add `5190` to the general "HTTP Ports" list in the Symantec
 Firewall (I have no idea where the setting actually is) - otherwise you'll
 have to complain to Symantec tech support, there really isn't anything
 that we can do about it.
