	I want to create links on my website that trigger an AOL IM (or iChat, Adium, Trillian, whatever the default instant-messaging client happens to be) chat with a particular user. If I use this code: Code: <a href="aim://goim?screenname=myusername">Chat with me via AOL IM!</a> It works fine on my Mac but returns a Page Not Found error on the PC. Any ideas why?
