Question Posted Friday August 18 2006, 4:21 am

I want to check my friends AIM because I want to see if she's friends with someone I don't like. [ she won't tell me if she is or not ] and I know her password, and I just want to log on really quick, and then sign off and not go on it anymore. And I know her password and everything, I'm just afraid that if I go on it, someone'll IM me and I'll have to talk to them and they'll mention it to her and she'll find out and get mad. Is there anyway I can do it without her knowing? Like, is there a way I can sign onto her name while she's online? Or will AIM like, send her a notice or something that's she on at 2 places at once. Help?

You should just trust your friend (if she's already told you she isn't friends with the person) .. that's what friends do- they trust each other...
If I were you- I wouldn't invade your friend's privacy... you might mess up your friendship if she were to find out. If you mess up your friendship and loose your friend you'll regret ever going on her s/n and invading her privacy..

Hope I helped!

ok if she is no at the same time it will send her a notice and sign her out. And i dont want to get too much in your buisness but i dont think you should do that just respect her privacy and take her word for it. And even if she was friends with this person it shouldnt matter ...... sorry if this didnt help

It is kinda a invasion of privacy, but if you do do it, next time she signs on be like "Someone signed on your name earlier" so she thinks it was someone else. And by the way, when you sign on their screen name when they are on, they will get a pop up notification from a robot telling them that their screen name is signed on from another location and they can sign you off. But just don't talk to anyone if they say hi.

The other option is to just talk to her and ask her why she wont tell you; tell her its not really a big deal. Just a yes or no answer.

When you sign on to your friends screen name on the top left hand corner of the screen is an eye. Click on the eye and it makes you invisible... you're still signed on but people think you're off. I wouldn't sign on while she is signed on. Both of you will get a notice saying you're both signed on in two places and she may sign you off. Just wait till she is signed off.

*Hope I Helped*

The chance of receiving a message while you're in her account is probably not too high if you sign out quickly, but if your friend is logged in when you attempt to login to her account, she will be disconnected, and that way she will find out that someone else has been logging into her account.

No matter if your friend will find out or not, you really shouldn't be doing that. By doing that, you're breaking the trust between you and your friend. Also, why does it matter if she's friends with someone you don't like? That doesn't make her a bad friend.

Firstly, there is a good chance someone may see her name sign in and they may talk to you. If she finds out and confronts you, you won't have a leg to stand on.

Secondly, there is a major issue that needs to be addressed here. You say you want to know if she is friends with someone you don't like. Rather than going behind her back and fraudulently signing into her account, it would be far, far better to just ask her. If she is your friend, you need to trust that she will tell you the truth and she needs to be able to trust you not to sneak around behind her back. If you go ahead with this, please consider what sort of a friend that makes you to her.

Thirdly, I know that you don't like this person that she might be friends with but let's get this into perspective. Do you really believe you can tell your friend who she can or cannot be friends with? If the shoe was on the other foot, do you think you would stand for it either? Fair enough, you don't like this person. The feeling may be mutual. But it is your friend's decision who she maintains a friendship with and being friends with this person does not mean she cannot be friends with you too.

I know you might be worried that this person will turn your friend against you. If she's a true friend, it won't happen. If she's not a true friend, you were better off without her anyway.
