sorry but nobody was responding to my original post. but ehre it goes. well i did everything u suggested. everything went smoothly, until i got to the ./configure step. it says not a file or directory, so i looked through the files of amsn, and it already had a makefile, so i just went ahead and typed in make, then for there out it went fine also. so i installed, i believe so anyways since it is in the internet apps menu. but the path, prefix, etc, stuff i did not do bc they went along with the ./configure which did not work. after all this, it appeared that the install went smoothly. but when i try to launch the app, it does nothing. am i doing something wrong, i didn't it was this difficult to install, not being a programmer either probably plays a part, that and me being an idiot, so im you can help, id really appreciate it. thank a lot.

Umm...I don't know if you checked out the amsn website, but it clearly shows how to install their program...heh.

Download amsn-0_xx.tar.gz

$ tar -xvzf amsn-0_xx.tar.gz

$ cd msn

$ ./amsn
or
$ wish amsn

Couldn't be much simpler than that. :D
