You say you downloaded a lot of crap. Get rid of it - then get rid of the spyware you probably downloaded with it. I recommend Ad-aware. Also, run a virus scan. Then try the installation again.
If you're still stuck, try an older version of AIM.
It should not be necessary to reformat your hard drive.

No, the stuff I downloaded was from a long time ago--like freshman year when I was dumb. I've since deleted it all and have Ad-aware and all that stuff. The computer just runs slower than it should because of all that in the past. And I don't have any viruses.
I may go with the option of trying an older version of AIM, but I really just want to do a reformat anyway and maybe I should go on and do that sometime soon due to all this.
