I've checked the network settings, and it would appear that the defaults for
centericq's aim connections are out of date, which should probably be opened as
a separate bug. the correct settings should be login.oscar.aol.com:5190.

Having changed this, I no longer get the error listed below, and in fact,
nothing is added to the centericq log to even indicate a connection.
In the status window within centericq I now get:

[aim] connecting to the server
[aim] password sent
[aim] disconnected

I have confirmed that the other clients are able to connect on the same network
address.
