Been using AIM 5.2.3281 along with DeadAIM 4.5 for a while now (I'm so not using a newer version of AIM). I just noticed I can't change a thing in my privacy settings, such as how long I've been idle or anything. I have no idea what else it can be other than perhaps it being an old version of AIM or using deadAIM (I love it for the tabbed windows, notifications, logging, window transparency, and aliasing names).
