How do I set the archive feature to be permanent in IM programs such as Yahoo, MSN and AOL? We use Win 9X OS on the client side and I do not want users to turn on/off this feature. Thanks in advance for your help.

I'm not sure how to keep users from turning the feature off; however, I don't believe there is a permanent archiving feature on AOL/AIM. In those programs, the user must simply save the conversation based on his/her own discretion.

An enterprise-level collaboration tool such as MindAlign 4.0 alleviates these problems by bringing together globally dispersed organizations in the form of business communities. Sometimes mistaken for being too similar to IM competitors such as America Online Instant Messenger and Lotus Sametime, MindAlign provides a secure, internally controlled solution for collaborating on specific topics. The tool also archives the information for later retrieval and continued discussion. Unlike users of AOL Instant Messenger, users of MindLink cannot, by default, collaborate with MindLink users at other organizations. Using the PortalLink module, however, a company can grant access to those outside the organization.
