A user walked into SIPB the other day and was confused about the new
Athena gaim. He was a new gaim user. He wanted to use it for AOL instant
messenger (not MIT Jabber) and it wasn't clear to him that it was possible
to use it for anything other the MIT Jabber (the default account) by
setting up his AIM account via the Accounts button.
The im locker gaim pops up the Accounts window for first-time users,
forcing them to add their AOL IM account information.
