I thought Fire was discontinued:

Sounds like the developers have moved to Adium
http://www.adiumx.com/
Unfortunately I couldn't figure out a way to get VO to read the
contacts. They all read "available contact". I know AOL has put a bunch
of effort into AIM on Windows for Jaws. I haven't tried it on the Mac
yet. I think the Mac AIM was lagging the Win version by quite a bit so
it probably doesn't do much for VO. iChat seems to work ok for starting
up a chat. I could navigate up and down my buddy list with the arrows or
type the first few letters to match somebody and then activate that user
to chat with them. Once I was chatting though I couldn't get it to read
back responses from the other person. Also, emoticons like :) came
through as "embedded image" from the other person. AIM 4.7 was pretty
much silent. Considering it was released February 2004 I'm surprised it
still works on my MacBook :)

Hi there,
I use iChat for both AIM and MSN, though you'll have to jump through
some hoops to get MSN working with it through Jabber. Fire is good,
but I have found, overall, that iChat tends to be more reliable.
