 > Hi, I just installed 2.6.5 on Windows 7 Ult and when I have SSL enabled
 for my AIM account I keep getting "Received unexpected response from
 http://api.oscar.aol.com/aim/startOSCARSession" errors. My friend has also
 messaged me and says he has the same problem, I believe he's running 2.5.5
 on windows xp.

 account/Modify/Advanced/"Use SSL"

 Your problems are unrelated to this ticket, although it is widespread.
 Your issue is a bad interaction between the 'clientLogin' authentication
 method and SSL.  As you noted, disabling SSL fixes the issue, as does
 disabling clientLogin.
