One small problem in an otherwise excellent program:

Whenever i try to "get buddy info" for someone, i get an error message that says:

"An Error Occured.
Server Response was formatted incorrectly."

I believe it's problems on AOL's side since sometimes you can get buddy info and other times you can't. I believe Adam also has this up on his site.

Like I said, sometimes I can sometimes I can't. It's a problem with the AOL servers.

I'm having an unrelated problem with Adium. My font appears extra large on the receiving end. If I have my Adium font set to 11pt. Verdana it will show up on the other end as like 16pt. Anybody know how to fix this?

no reason not to.

I have also encountered this bug, think it is on AOL's side. I usually get it the fire person I check for each time I launch the app, then it dosent' work.
