Internet Links

In this topic, we continue our discussion of features found under the Misc command on the Tools Menu.

The Internet Links menu command displays the Internet links for the person that is logged on to AIM. By clicking a link, the default Web browser, Internet Explorer or Firefox for example, will connect to the link via the Internet.

In the steps that follow, we show you how to add and remove folders and links. With a little practice, you will be able to use the AIM Internet Links to quickly connect to your business related Internet links.
